Our company offers various solutions for selecting cash registers with barcodes: from portable terminals with a 5-inch screen to large cash registers with a 10-inch display.
All models of cash registers with barcodes presented on our website differ in scanning range. The reading range varies from a short distance of 30 cm to 1 meter. The main characteristics of our models are maximum resolution and reading speed.
We sell barcode cash registers with various types reader
Based on the type of reader, the equipment is divided into LED, laser and image. The first, due to LEDs with a long service life and the absence of moving elements in them, is durable. The second is very popular, since in them information is read by irradiating black and white stripes with a laser beam, which provides them with greater productivity, operating range and reading width. The third, thanks to the camera, is capable of reading barcodes at a long range and from high speed.
Our catalog also includes models with the ability to scan any common two-dimensional, one-dimensional and linear barcodes. We sell models with built-in single-plane and multi-plane scanners. The peculiarity of the single-plane one is that it can read the code only if the product is perpendicular to the device. Such a device is suitable for a convenience store format outlet. Multiplane devices instantly scan and decode barcodes of varying complexity. Such devices for hypermarkets contribute to fast work operator and fast customer service.
Right choice
If you plan to use the device frequently, then you should give preference to models with high scanning speed and accuracy. It is also worth paying attention to:
- Under what conditions will the equipment be operated? It is necessary to take into account the mechanical strength of the device and the degree of its protection from environmental influences.
- What barcode reading equipment is selected for? The type of encoding is directly related to its size and reading distance.
- Is instant scanning required in one step? If yes, then it is advisable to choose a multi-plane model with an encoding correction function and high operating speed.
- Do the device need additional functions and mechanisms? Depending on the operating conditions and tasks performed, a device with a barcode can be equipped with additional flash memory, IR sensors, etc.
It is also worth considering such an aspect as the ease of working with the equipment. The easier it is for an operator to work with equipment that is small in size and light in weight, the faster he will serve customers.
How much do barcode cash registers cost?
The cost depends on many characteristics: screen size, variety of interfaces, battery capacity, operating speed, design, as well as the brand, etc. The price is also affected by the level of protection of the cash register housing from water and dust particles.
Cash register (KKM) is a device designed to perform cash transactions, calculate the total cost of purchases and account for funds. Modern cash register models allow you to calculate the amount of change, print a receipt and store in the fiscal memory the final information about monetary transactions made over a certain period. On the company website website cash register equipment There is a wide selection of models with different functionality from well-known manufacturers - AMC, Elwes, ShTRIKH, Mercury, Orion and others.
Recall that using Cash register for UTII - required condition for individual entrepreneurs (IP) and companies whose details are carried out in the retail trade sector. Cash register equipment is also used in various service sectors, in the sale of petroleum products, in hotels and restaurants.
What can KKM printing do?
The cash register can print on a receipt:
- name of the trading enterprise;
- serial number of the check;
- KKM serial number;
- time and date of purchase made;
- total purchase price;
- the amount paid by the buyer;
- change amount;
- product name or code;
- cashier's surname;
- programmable "Thank you" at the end of the check.
KKM operating modes
All cash register models have basic modes that are mandatory for cash register equipment. At the same time, depending on the technical design, some models support additional functionality.
The main modes of the cash register: cash register, Z-report and replaceable X-report. At connecting KKM to the computer and peripheral devices, among the main functions such features as: larger memory capacity, reading data from bank cards, the function of printing a non-cash check, entering and correcting information using the keyboard, etc. A barcode scanner, a backing document printer, a cash drawer and others can also be connected to the cash register. necessary devices provided that the cash register model used has the appropriate interface.
As a rule, the main elements of a cash register are: display unit, control unit, power supply, printing device, keyboard, storage device, fiscal memory and cash drawer.
Types of cash registers
Data cash registers classified into smart and non-smart devices:
- intelligent cash registers have integrated cash accounting modules and personal computer, and therefore are able to accumulate and process the information received;
- non-intelligent cash registers less functional, have a small memory capacity and are unable to process information. Otherwise, their functionality is identical to intelligent cash register models.
By design, cash registers are classified into three types: autonomous, active and passive.
Autonomous cash register- has expanded functionality due to the ability to connect additional devices. Such models can operate without a constant power source via batteries and are compact in size and light in weight for ease of use. They support such basic operations as: printing a receipt, storing data on transactions performed for daily reports. Autonomous cash registers They are used mainly in small stores, for outdoor trading and represent the simplest version of a cash register.
Passive cash register- suitable for working in a computer cash register system, but does not support management of this system. Passive cash registers- this is a simplified version of active cash registers. Some models of this category of cash registers can also be used autonomously. Passive cash registers are mainly used in enterprises that do not need high level automation of work on cash register machines. Such models allow for total and quantitative accounting of goods.
Active cash register- works in a computer cash register system to automate the accounting of transactions carried out through the cash register. Active cash registers in this complex they act as a manager. This type of equipment can also include a POS terminal, since it is a cash register equipped with fiscal memory and the ability to process and display information. Such cash registers can be used as a passive or autonomous cash register. Through a specialized cash register software the entire system is controlled. Active cash registers are required mainly by large stores, as well as hotels and restaurants.
The company Center CT presents Various types cash registers, differing in functionality and dimensions. That is, if necessary, you can buy cash register for small retail outlets (both open and closed), or purchase a model that provides high throughput in large shopping centers.
A store with a product range of hundreds of items is faced with the problem of accounting for goods. The optimal solution is to introduce barcode accounting and automate turnover control. Coding allows you to use multiple qualitative characteristics of a position: from cost, date of receipt, to expiration date and selling price.
1. Advantages of automated control
The use of barcodes implies automation of control of goods turnover, work with accounting programs for warehouse and sales floor personnel. Also, an IT specialist must appear on staff or a cooperation agreement must be concluded with a company that provides program installation and technical support services.
As a result of the reorganization of the barcode control and accounting system for goods in a store, the owner receives:
- Possibility of accounting both in total and in quantitative-cumulative ways.
- Prompt updating of information about inventory balances and received payments (when using integrated payment terminals).
- Automatic linking of payments to sold product items.
- Simplified document flow with minimal possibility of error. The programs do not allow goods to be delivered or moved without accompanying documents.
- Transparent warehouse accounting and reduction of time for inventory by 4-5 times.
- Rational use of retail and warehouse space.
- Minimization of theft, theft both from the warehouse and from the sales floor, due to the accounting of goods in display cases, control of accounting of inventory balances.
- The ability to quickly compile analytical reports on the speed of sales, the amount of revenue, mark-ups, profits, costs for any price list item.
- Orderly relationships with suppliers: payments are automatically posted within the system, returns of goods are visible, etc. Analysis of information will help eliminate an unscrupulous partner and obtain from a regular supplier Better conditions work.
The main thing that an automated commodity turnover control system will do is to minimize personnel errors, mis-grading, and shortages.
Professional automation of goods accounting in retail. Organize your store
Take control of sales and track performance by cashiers, points and organizations in real time from anywhere convenient place where there is internet. Formulate the needs of outlets and purchase goods in 3 clicks, print labels and price tags with barcodes, making life easier for yourself and your employees. Form a customer base using a ready-made loyalty system, use flexible system discounts to attract customers during off-peak hours. Operate like a big store, but without the expense of specialists and server equipment today, starting to earn more tomorrow.
2. How barcode accounting works
Automation of trade turnover is provided by a portable data collection terminal (DCT), which reads the data “hardwired” into the barcode. The operating diagram is shown in the figure:
They produce many modifications of TSD, with a different set of options and cost. There are TSDs that are connected to main computers via cable, and there are terminals that transmit data remotely.
Typical terminal capabilities:
- When receiving goods, check the barcodes of incoming items with accompanying documents, if there is no product labeling, make labels on a mobile printer.
- The invoices are loaded by the materially responsible person, the information contained in them becomes available to warehouse employees, and discrepancies in quantities, if any, are visible. After acceptance, the data from the TSD is transferred to a computer that maintains internal records.
- Simplify the audit and inventory process. This can be done in two ways: reading the codes of stored goods in the warehouse, identifying discrepancies with accounting data. Then combine the information stored on the server with the actual indicators. Second: the storekeeper creates electronic form for inventory, reads items for which there are doubts, and enters the results into the electronic audit sheet. It is the basis for automatic registration of inventory results.
- During shipment or internal movement of items, product movements are displayed in the accounting program after reading the codes. Double checking of items eliminates mis-grading and employee errors.
Comprehensive trade automation at minimum costs
Let's take it regular computer, connect any fiscal registrar and install the Business Ru Kassa application. As a result, we get an economical analogue of a POS terminal like in a large store with all its functions. We supply products with prices in cloud service Business.Ru and let's start working. For everything about everything - maximum 1 hour and 15-20 thousand rubles. for the fiscal registrar.
Depending on the size of the trading company, structure, assortment, financial resources, the terminal configuration, model, and number of TSD jobs are selected.
Operational management and control of trade turnover is impossible without analysis of trading activities.
Barcode accounting allows you to get:
- Sales report: analysis of sales for an arbitrary calendar period, for individual divisions (sections), calculation of discounts.
- Profit report: automatic calculation of gross profit based on cost, markup of product item.
- Register of inventory balances: number of items on an arbitrary date, schedule of receipts, movements, sales.
- Report for the balance method of accounting for goods (TORG-29).
In addition to the above, automation of commodity control allows you to generate specific reports: requirements for commodity items, load distribution in the warehouse, etc. The system allows you to change the initial data, color mark in the price list items that bring the main profit, or unprofitable ones.
Accounting for goods using a barcode is impossible without creating labels, labels, and price tags. Modern systems allow you to create templates, save them on the server, and copy them to a label printer.
You can include in the template:
- Date of receipt, price setting;
- Implementation deadlines;
- Cost, markup amount;
- Vendor code;
- Qualitative characteristics of the item (weight, fabric composition, size, etc.).
The appearance of the label is changed by a set of fonts, using ribbons of different widths and colors for printing.
In addition to selecting a price tag parameter, automated control of trade turnover allows you to adjust the information contained in the receipt: amount, amount of taxes, item price, discount amount, etc.
Increase store efficiency in 1 month
The service will improve the efficiency of the store by reducing the loss of inventory, significantly speed up the process of revaluations, printing price tags/labels, strictly discipline the cashier’s work and limit his capabilities when working with discounts/sales at a free price.
3. Typical mistakes when switching to barcode accounting
Organizing barcode control of trade turnover at a retail outlet is a lengthy and costly process. According to the experience of companies involved in installation and service support of TSD, store owners make typical mistakes:
- Initially, the budget is not determined.
- After automating accounting processes, you save on staff training.
- They introduce automated accounting without modernizing the warehouse business process, using address storage, or information accounting.
- They do not represent the capabilities of TSD, as a result - incorrect formulation of tasks, incomplete use of technical resources.
Because of the above, accounting automation becomes a headache, a waste of time and money.
4. Stages of implementing barcode accounting of goods
You need to start automating trade turnover control by determining the budget, choosing a company that will introduce new technologies and help in staff training. So, in order:
1. Determining the budget. The cost of implementing barcode accounting technology depends on the number of product items, the number of operator workplaces, and anti-theft systems (it’s up to you to install them or not). For retail store with a retail area of 100 - 200 sq. m. with one cash register the amount is 60 - 100 thousand rubles (when using only portable scanners, if you install a stationary one, add another 800 - 1200 USD).
2. The choice of a company performing automation depends on the specifics of the store, or more precisely the accounting software it uses. There are companies specializing in barcode accounting in 1C, and others in other programs. Remember: you will have to work with them for many months, because in addition to installation, automated accounting also implies service maintenance from 1,000 to 10,000 rubles monthly.
3. Formation of technical specifications: a task performed by a company implementing barcode accounting of goods, in close cooperation with the owner of the outlet.
Decide:
- what information to “sew” into the code (qualitative characteristics of the product item, cost, markup, selling price, etc., which will be displayed when displaying product information in the database. For example, trousers, silk, size 48, color brown, 3500 rubles, plus 3500 rubles , sales for 7,000 rubles);
- what codes the store will work with: linear or two-dimensional, manufacturer or internal codes. Information embedded in the code is read either horizontally or horizontally and vertically. There is more information hidden in two dimensions;
- with the number of workplaces equipped with scanners;
- with a method of transferring data from the TSD to the server. The batch and on-line (WiFi) methods differ in the presence of a direct connection to a computer or without a connection;
- list of equipment: data collection terminal, portable scanners, server, label printer, customer display, scales with label printing, cash register with scanner, fiscal registrar. 4.
4. Diagnostics of business processes related to trade turnover: frequency of inventories, receipts, sales. The procedure for receiving goods, processing returns, etc.
5.Setting up the accounting program used in the store. She is “taught” to perceive information from the TSD and generate ciphers containing the necessary data.
6.Writing and setting up software for scanners and terminals.
7.Purchase of equipment (office equipment, scanner, printer, terminal, cash register, etc.).
8.Staff training, “run-in” automated system accounting.
When all stages are completed, the store becomes the owner modern system control of trade turnover. It is important to synchronize the automation of trade turnover with the company’s document flow.
How to squeeze maximum sales out of your store
You can increase sales with the help of loyalty systems, they allow you to motivate the buyer to come back again, as well as attraction tools in the form of creating sales or promotions for certain groups of goods, analytics that will allow you to see profit, profitability, revenue and other indicators that will help you see the picture of current sales and will influence the growth of these indicators.
5. How to choose a scanner and printer for labels
Barcode scanners are produced by:
- according to the method of reading information: laser, LED, photo;
- portable, stationary mixed at the installation site;
- according to the TSD information transmission method: wired, wireless.
There are pros and cons for each group.
LED scanners are cheap, quickly read codes, and accept codes with a stripe width of 0.1 mm. Among the disadvantages: they do not perceive damaged codes well, they work at a distance of no more than 15 cm, it is difficult to read large codes, they are more often used at checkouts.
Laser ones cost more than LED ones and perceive data at a distance of up to a meter. Among the disadvantages: high price, poorly adapted to reading 2-dimensional ciphers, more often used in warehouses.
Photo scanners are the most expensive group of devices, allowing you to work with any codes, in any condition, from any angle. There is only one drawback - the price.
Portable models are cheaper, stationary or mixed models are more expensive. In this case, a mobile scanner will not read damaged codes, but a stationary scanner will cope with the task freely.
Label printers work in monochrome mode with roll or sheet materials.
Printer types:
- Thermal transfer: information is transferred to the label using an ink ribbon. The result is a label that is resistant to adverse influences and is suitable for labeling long-term storage goods. Disadvantage: high cost of equipment and consumables.
- Thermal: Thermal paper displays information when heated. Disadvantages: labels change color under the influence of temperature and water. Advantages: low cost of the printer, consumable tape.
The approximate price of a thermal printer is 8,000 rubles, a thermal transfer printer is at least twice as expensive. As Supplies They use self-adhesive, colored, transparent paper of different widths (6-110 mm).
Choose a model based on the specifics of the store (in an expensive boutique it is inappropriate to save on labels, and vice versa), budget, and compatibility with the accounting program.
Wide the lineup, the variety of basic functions makes it difficult for a person who has not previously encountered such equipment to choose a terminal.
List of characteristics that affect the cost of equipment and require attention:
- Method of collecting information: the ability to read linear and two-dimensional barcodes, radio tags. The technical equipment and automation costs depend on the method of data collection and the marking methods used.
- Display size.
- Memory capacity: the higher the turnover, the more memory the TSD requires for autonomous operation.
- Battery capacity.
- Method of transmitting information to the host computer: base station, bluetooth or wi-fi.
- Defence from external influences: protection from moisture, temperature changes, mechanical damage.
- Warranty, service.
