Key features
User friendly interface
Re-Scan is designed with humans in mind, it is made to be quick and easy to learn to minimise staff training and to allow users of all levels to get the most out of the system.
Multibuys/ promotions and meal deals
Consumers are starting to look for more selection when they shop. With the likes of Tesco and Asda offering a wider selection of special offers it is imperative that you are not left behind.
Re-Scan has the capability to offer a wide range of promotions and multibuys including BOGOF (Buy One Get One Free), Cheapest free, Discounted and required spend multibuys, Meal deals and various other offers spanning several product ranges.
Store current customers basket in layaway
If a customer forgets an item or needs to return to their car to get their purse there sale can be put on hold allowing you to continue using the till until they return. Sales put on hold on one till can be re-opened and completed on another till.
The tills can hold 100s of transactions for an indefinite amount of time or a limit on the number of layaways can be imposed to stop them building up. When cashing up, staff can be warned of held invoices forcing them to cancel or complete them before clearing down the tills.
Customer accounts
With the customer accounts module you can set-up and operate credit accounts, allowing customers to buy items on account, with individual credit terms and values, with detailed account statements and billing.
Loyalty / bonus points
The retail sector is competitive and loyalty points will give you the edge over your competitors. Allow your consumers to collect bonus points from each transaction and allow them to spend these points in your store. Fully customisable, you are in control of how much a point is worth and even how much a consumer needs to spend in order to collect a point. Points can be configured differently for each product group, and the bonus liability reports will show you the total accrued bonus point for all customers, allowing you total control over the scheme.
Price / weight embedded barcodes
Full support of price and weight embedded barcodes removes the need for manual entry of items such as lottery tickets and pre-weighed deli items reducing input errors and double entry, ensuring you always sell at the correct price.
Advert screens
Increase impulse buying with advertising at the till. Rear screens are available to display promotional information to your consumers, however if one additional screen isn’t enough we are able to display adverts on up to 8 additional screens throughout your store. Advert space can be sold to local businesses and tradesmen adding an extra revenue stream.
Product price inquiry
Price inquiry on the tills is as simple as a touch of a button.
Premium pricing
With so many demands on their time the busy retailer often doesn’t have enough time to trawl through pages of invoices in order to find out which products have gone up in price or to spot the new barcode on the shelf. It is for this reason that we have developed the Premium Pricing system that allows you to set and forget your prices. You simply set how much you would like to sell a product or product group above RRP and the system will maintain that margin.
Print out receipts for previous customers.
Printing receipts for previous customer can easily be achieved even if the customer came in hours before.
Payment surcharge, minimum/ maximum spend options
Each payment method (Cash/ Credit card/ Coupon etc) can have its own minimum and maximum value applied, they can also have a fixed surcharge or percentage surcharge applied automatically at the till.
Cash back and no change options
Custom payment methods can be set up giving you total flexibility, a payment method can be defined as a cash back payment or a payment method that does not allow change (for example gift cards or coupons)
Easy POS creation
More than ever consumers are looking for that big shop experience in their local convenience stores. It is for this reason we have developed a system by which you are able to create striking POS with the click of a button. Simply scan the product you wish to celebrate and select the POS you require from a range of different types and sizes to suit any location.
Scancards / dalas keys
With security being of paramount importance we have a comprehensive user system to ensure that only the right people can access management functionality. With a fully customizable security system we put you in control. Users can log in with their user name/ passwords, scan-cards / magswipes or dala keys (i-buttons).
Security levels
With 90 customisable security levels, you can decide what each members of staff can access and sell, restricting void, cancelled, price overrides and even sales of individual product groups to the managers and trusted staff members.
Full accountability
Along with security levels the use of user accounts further increase your security by letting you know what changes have been made by which member of staff. Each sale, void, cancelled sale, price change, stock amendment and order is traceable to the member of staff that was responsible for it.
Unlimited customisable till layouts
Not all stores are the same and as such we do not expect all our retailers to work in the same way. As such our till layout is fully customisable, we can change everything whether it be the colour or size of a single button or adding an entirely new screen of new buttons.
Event messages and refusal of sales
The event messaging system allows messages and prompts to be set up, prompting staff to ask customers for ID when purchasing restricted products (alcohol, lottery tickets, etc.) making a comprehensive log of the staff members response to questions. Custom reasons for refusals and even acceptance of sales can be set-up to help record why sale of an item was rejected.
Purchase ordering
Track all purchases and credits with our simple to use purchase ordering screen, orders can be created on the back office, on the till or using a wireless hand held terminal, and electronically transmitted to suppliers using a number of different transmission methods.
Auto ordering
Orders can be automatically generated based on historic sales quantities, minimum stock, current stock levels and a number of other factors, helping you to make sure you have the correct stock in store, generated orders can then be altered and tweaked as needed.
