Integrating with point of sale systems

Sterling™ Order Management System Software enables you to integrate with point of sale systems used in stores for product check-outs and returns from customers.

When a sales transaction is posted to the Sterling Store Inventory Management from a point of sale (POS), the location from which inventory has to be deducted may not be known, and hence not passed. Under such circumstances, the Sterling Store Inventory Management deducts the inventory from one or more locations that are configured for the purpose of adjustment (that is, for an Adjustment Reason Code). Depending on the availability at each location, the location is appropriately adjusted and then the next location is considered, if required. If a virtual location is one of the locations in the sequence, the inventory availability at the location is not checked and such a location is allowed to go negative.
