Back office software and POS systems are complementary tools for businesses. While POS systems handle customer-facing transactions at the point of sale, back office software manages the behind-the-scenes operations like inventory control, accounting, payroll, and customer relationship management.
Essentially, POS focuses on sales, while back office software oversees the broader business management tasks. The best option: Choose a POS with robust back office functions like FTx POS.
Control Center is a robust retail back office platform, our platform can transform any retail seller’s back office.
However, we offer functionalities and expertise for businesses that sell tobacco, alcohol, lottery and other age-restricted products. As a convenience store back office software, for example, Control Center provides key features like tobacco scan data reporting, cash and lottery reconciliation, cycle count/replenishment automation, and more. Plus, our platform was built for businesses with multiple locations.
Some businesses prefer to use multiple software tools to manage these processes. However, it’s recommended that, at a minimum, your POS back office system includes inventory, reporting/analytics, ordering, and employee management.
Ultimately, the key advantage of a unified retail back office is reduced costs (fewer software subscriptions) and huge savings in time (one platform to learn, all applications in one place).
