Point of Sale

Point-of-Sale Overview

The Eagle Business Software (EBMS) contains many powerful Point-of-Sale (POS) tools. These options are used to create invoices or sales receipts at the time of sale. Payment options such as cash, check, debit, and credit cards payments are processed within the POS window. The EBMS software contains three primary windows to process POS transactions:

  1. The standard EBMS Invoice and SO Window: This option is documented within the Sales documentation. 

    • Review the Sales Orders section for more details on creating sales orders

    • Review the Invoices section for more details on creating and processing sales invoices

    • Review the Customer Payments section for more details on processing payments

  2. The Xpress POS System: This POS option is used primarily as a cash register replacement. This option can be used for a remote location, a multi-lane store, or any store that requires quick checkout options.    

  3. The Online E-commerce web: This powerful browser based option can be used for retails sales or online ordering for distributors and wholesales sales.

Credit cards, Debit cards, and other specialty cards can be used as payments within each one of these POS options. The system uses the Verifone Payware software so the user can interface to a variety of merchant accounts and card programs. Review the Payment Card Processing > Processing Payment Cards section for more details on Payware  service and setup.

Technology such as barcode scanners, cash drawers, and receipt printers can be interfaced within the EBMS software to create a powerful point-of-sale solution. Product and bin labels containing barcodes can be printed directly from the EBMS software. Electronic signature pads, credit card processing, customer pole displays, and weigh scales are some additional devices supported by EBMS.  Review the following Point of Sale Hardware sections for hardware configuration instructions:
