Understanding POS Systems
'POS' stands for 'Point of Sale', the place where buyers make purchases. Typically in consignment and resale shops, customers bring items to checkout for purchase. Our software efficiently processes these transactions, computes sales totals, and provides receipt printing options.
POS System Components
A system for consignment and resale shops includes processing software, a computer, a cash drawer, a barcode scanner, and thermal receipt and label printers.
For a consignment software program, a Windows computer should have at least 2.5GHz processing speed and 8GB of RAM. Shops with thousands of inventory items should have at least 3.5GHz and 16GB.
Best Consignment Shop Software installs on local Windows-based computers or laptops. When using multiple computers at the same location, they connect via Ethernet cables to a router, which routes data between the main and remote computers.
Cash Drawer and Printers
A cash drawer securely stores money and valuables. It connects to the receipt printer and opens when a receipt is printed. Stores with no-return policies may not need printed receipts. Best Consignment Software offers options to print receipts on plain paper and to connect the drawer to the PC for key-press operation. (The drawer does not open for credit card sales.)
A thermal receipt printer prints sales information on 3"-wide thermal receipt paper, while a thermal label printer prints adhesive price labels and non-adhesive hang tags.
Data Preservation and Redundancy
Data preservation is critical and must involve external devices and cloud storage. Redundant backups in multiple locations help ensure recoverable data when issues arise. Backup equipment is also essential for quick recovery.
