Restaurants are a fast-paced business and any time you can save is money that you can earn. At the same time, they are dynamic, requiring flexibility with food and bills to allow for you to change customer’s dishes, give discounts, upcharge, and more. With a digital POS system, you can do all of this and more. Many restaurants in the Philippines have already switched over to digital POS systems to make their lives easier and here are some of the reasons you should switch too.
Manage All Of Your Menu Items and Stock
Managing all of your menu items on your POS, website, and many other locations can take some time and be difficult. With a POS system, you can simply add items in one location and then use that to manage across other platforms. Not only that you can manage what you have and stock and what is out, including down to the ingredients available. Adding ingredients to an order with an upcharge is also incredibly easy.
Print Orders
With a POS system, your wait staff can input an order and print off a slip for the kitchen so they know exactly what they are making. For a standard order, this isn’t a major concern but when a customer wants to add extra sauce, new ingredients, and other things to their order it can quickly become complicated to write down. A printed slip can also make it easier to read as you don’t have to worry about someone’s handwriting being poor.
Online Sales
Want to be able to increase revenue by offering gift cards online or vouchers? With a digital point of sale system, you can integrate the sales of gift cards and vouchers into your website so that people can buy them for their friends and family. Beyond that, a high-end digital POS system enables you to integrate your digital marketing into your system so that everything can be launched, tracked, and utilize through one system.
Employee Management
Managing all of your employees can be quite hard and paper systems can take up a lot of space. With a digital POS system, your employee management features such as timecards and pay are managed within the same system as your payment processing. This means that you don’t need to subscribe to separate software or have other equipment in your office. Your employee’s POS account is also their overall account for clocking in and other employee management features.
Accounting Features
Any business tends to have trouble when it comes to accounting, it takes time and costs money. When a business like a restaurant has to do accounting it can be even harder when you have tips and other things to take into account. Not to mention the constant sourcing of ingredients. With a digital POS system, it becomes much easier to perform your regular accounting tasks. Not only can these systems print out a number of reports but all of your features are combined into the system so it already has information the account reports will need such as transactions, employee pay, vendor orders, etc. This can save you a lot of time and money.
These are just some of the benefits that you can get from adopting a digital POS system for your restaurant in the Philippines. Imagine all of the time you could save and the money that can make you. Before buying a digital POS system though it is important to spend some time researching the options out there so that you get the best system possible.
