Eating will now take as long as necessary for food to prepare. You can sit and enjoy your evening while your
order is processed electronically and remotely printed. Before you know it, your favorite food is in front of you,
very warm.

Point of sale systems are important aspect of point of sale technology that makes complicated hospitality
management as easy as typing in a few words to the computer – that’s all it takes! Why choose to manually
unmount commands, passing it to the kitchen and put food on the table when you have customized touch screen
menus, remote controls and printing, automated billing, and guest account organization and supervision of staff on
hand?

Every restaurant needs three different point of sale systems for the front-office, back-office and kitchen
administration to function effectively.

Front Office
It will provide fast customer service and order management of a restaurant. This software keeps track of the
number of customers, the size of their orders, table numbers, and treasury operations.

Kitchen Administration
These are essentially electronic menu screens and order processing through monitors and portable point of sale
systems.

Back Office
It provides restaurant with an accurate record of the minute activities on any given day. This includes information
stored in a single database, timing, inventory, inventory management, security, and a range of other activities that
keep the restaurant open and running.

As with any point of sale restaurant computer also need input and output for all the different departments devices.
Some restaurants have keyboards or touch screens online as input devices, while others use electronic cash
registers at the entry and exit times. Acting as sophisticated cash registers, POS Restaurant assimilates and
disseminates information in response to requests from clients, printers and monitors in different locations, but
practical and connected via an interface to the back-office server.

The choice of input/output and software suitable for a particular restaurant requires careful consideration of all the
activities that need to be controlled by the POS systems in a food establishment.
