Today, DdD is launching an upgrade of the current cash register solution for the retail trade. DdD pos is based on the most recent technology and includes an attractive graphic layout. ”We want to be at the leading edge of the increasing demands from the retail trade when it comes to flexibility and data security – and, therefore, DdD pos is based on the most recent technology and equipped to meet future requirements that may arise in the continuous development of the retail trade”, says CEO Peder Falck. 

”The goal has been to create a product for our customers that ensures optimum handling of transactions in their stores. The user of the cash register should be able to complete a transaction quickly and simply. And the store manager should be able to extract important key figures on the individual products from the system and to customise the cash register to the needs of the store without having to worry about data security. All this is possible with DdD pos”, says Peder Falck.

DdD pos naturally includes the most frequently used standard functions such as discount, stock management, handling of gift vouchers, daily reports with key figures and much more. In addition, DdD pos has a number of other features that facilitate daily operations.

It is for example easy and simple for the administrator to maintain the configuration. The log on screen display can be designed to meet the needs of the store and to display daily sales, and it is possible to customise the cash register to the individual employee by selecting language, font and restrict the use of functions, but not least it is possible to define the text on gift vouchers, credit vouchers and receipts for exchange and the text in the customer display.

In addition, a major improvement of the DdD pos is that you can enter additional sales information on each product such as supplementary/replacement products and add a picture to the product. Features that will facilitate the work of the sales assistant and enable him or her to offer better service to the customers.
