    Hi all.

    At the moment I use Excel for my own records.

    I add the products, shipping, date price etc and it works out profits etc.
    Its also a good record to go back to check old orders etc.

    I have been looking at POS software to use to save time.
    I want something that I can add the products and then just click on them to add to the order.
    This is to save time on typing etc.

    I know there is plenty of POS out there but none of them seem to be able to let me adjust the total sale price.
    This is something I need to be able to do easily.

    I know I could discount the sale but I don’t want to have to work out the amount I need to discount on every sale.
    it needs to be quick and easy.

    Anyone know if any software that lets you do this?
    Any recommendations?

    Thank you =)

    Hey Paul.

    I have tried a whole bunch of them.

    Downloaded trails.
    Downloaded free ones.
    Downloaded premium ones via torrent so I can try them.
    they all seem great.

    Non of them let me click the total and type an amount.
    Which I understand.
    But this is a feature I need, which is why I’m still using my excel spreadsheet.

    I was hoping someone would know of one that has the ability to do this.

    Thanks =)

    Hi philmb,

    I’m wondering how you went with this? It sounds like you have some fairly specific requirements and there’s not really a software package available to meet your needs at a suitable cost.

    I probably need more context but it sounds like you need something more like a basic order/inventory management system as opposed to POS? There’s plenty available in this space. However, they’re likely going to come with a bunch of features you’re not going to use.

    Have you considered a no-code solution like AirTable? It is similar to MS Excel with some really cool features and a nice UI. There is a free version available but it’s pretty affordable anyway and there are so many uses in other areas of your business.
