Inside the app
What is inside
The apps a supermarket runs on, and what each does for the day.
Checkouts
Each checkout has its own till, cash drawer and cashiers, and all of them sell from the same shelves.
Weighed produce
Fruit, vegetables and meat are sold by the kilogram, and a quantity like 1.5 kg prices itself.
Barcodes
Every product carries a barcode for the scanner, and scale labels can carry the weight inside the code.
VAT on each line
Prices include VAT where it applies, and exempt staples show 0% on their own order lines.
Shopper rewards
Regular shoppers collect points at every checkout and turn them into money off their basket.
Shelf stock
Each sale takes the items out of stock, and deliveries from suppliers put them back.
Reordering
Minimum and maximum levels show which products to reorder and how many.
Supplier orders
Orders to the wholesaler, dairy, farm and distributors are received line by line.

Questions
Questions about Supermarket
Not covered here? Contact us.
Can we run several checkouts at once?
Yes. Each checkout is its own till with its own cash drawer and cashiers, and all of them sell from the same stock.
How are weighed items priced?
Products marked to be weighed are sold by the kilogram. The checkout charges the price per kilogram for the weight entered or read from a connected scale.
Can shelf prices include VAT?
Yes. A tax can be set as included in the price, so the shelf price is what the shopper pays, and exempt items show 0%.
Can a basket be paid with mobile money and cash?
Yes. A basket can be paid with several payment methods, such as part by mobile money and the rest in cash.
How do loyalty points work?
The programme sets how many points each amount spent earns and what the points are worth, and every checkout adds and redeems them.
How do we know what to reorder?
The replenishment list shows the products below their minimum and how many bring them back to the maximum.
