Store POS to ERP Integration

POS transactions are aggregated in real time and synchronised with ERP inventory, closing the gap between stock and sales data from T+1 to real time. Checkout, stocktake, transfer and return data share one set of definitions, so head office sees every store's sales and stock as it happens.

Core capabilities

  • Real-time POS aggregationStore POS transactions upload in real time instead of end-of-day T+1 batching, keeping sales and stock in step.
  • ERP inventory linkageStandard APIs through the middleware write sales deductions and stock updates in real time, reducing oversell and stockouts.
  • Store checkoutA desktop all-in-one UHF RFID counter with 0–30 dBm adjustable power and 0–1 m read range for counter checkout.
  • Stocktake and transfersHandheld PDAs capture stocktake, transfer and return data and send it back to head office in real time.
  • Label and price-tag printingStore price tags and item labels printed with configurable templates and rules.
  • Zero intrusionExisting POS and ERP stay untouched; we build and commission the interfaces with canary release and fast rollback.

How it works

Start from when a store transaction actually reaches the system.

01

Receiving and put-away

Scan-to-receive and put-away registration feed the stock ledger in real time.

02

Checkout and settlement

An RFID counter or scanner completes checkout, and the transaction uploads instantly.

03

Inventory synchronisation

Sales deduction and stock write-back happen in real time, so head office and stores see the same stock.

04

Store stocktake

Handheld stocktake generates a discrepancy list on the spot and returns it to head office.

05

Transfers and returns

Full scan trail across store-to-store transfers, returns and exchanges.

06

Operations dashboard

Sales and stock summarised by store, region and category, with exception alerts.

Store POS linked to ERP inventory in real time

POS data was consolidated T+1, so stock and sales never matched and oversell and stockouts were common. We unified POS and handheld terminals, aggregated transactions in real time through the middleware and wrote them into ERP, giving checkout, stocktake and transfers one set of definitions.

Stock-to-sales lag cut from T+1 to real time. Based on industry norms (mid-size supermarket turnover 8–15×/year, i.e. 24–45 days), real-time inventory can shorten turnover by 3–6 days; stocktake moves to scan and portal-reader capture with parallel multi-store counts and automatic reconciliation.
