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. 

  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.

The POS software systems of EBMS interface with a number of POS hardware devices such as cash drawers, receipt and invoice printers, bar code scanners, payment devices etc. These devices can be configured for individual POS stations. Review the Point-of-Sale Devices section for more details on configuring these hardware options.
