Choose the workflows that fit your operation.

Start with the modules your organization needs. Add restaurant, pharmacy, hospital, school, or savings and loans workspaces without giving every user access to every part of the system.

CartronPOS point-of-sale terminal

Focused workspaces on one operational foundation

Each team works in the screens relevant to its responsibilities, while approved stock, sales, and finance records remain connected where the workflow requires them.

Core platform

Point of Sale

Fast branch checkout with accountable payments, cash control, returns, promotions, and customer loyalty.

Run the terminal in the hosted application or keep selling through the local desktop app when connectivity is unreliable. Every sale remains tied to its branch, cashier, payment account, stock movement, and audit history.

  • Barcode, SKU, variant, serial, and GS1-assisted product entry
  • Held carts, customers, promotions, loyalty, credit, and split payments
  • Cash drawer sessions, automatic pre-sale checks, movements, and reconciliation
  • Receipts, sales history, controlled manual sales, and auditable returns
  • Offline-capable local selling with branch-scoped hosted synchronization

Typical workflow

  1. 1Open or confirm the cashier drawer session
  2. 2Build the cart and apply the approved customer, price, promotion, or loyalty rules
  3. 3Collect one or more payments and issue the receipt
  4. 4Post stock, account, customer, and audit activity to the originating branch

Access and data scope

Sales and drawer sessions belong to the selling branch. Store assignments, POS menu access, and action permissions determine who may sell, discount, return, reconcile, or review transactions.

Connected to Inventory, Accounting

Designed for: Retail counters, school shops, pharmacies, hospital billing points, restaurants, and service desks.

Core platform

Inventory

Separate warehouse and selling stock while retaining one traceable product and movement history.

Model products once, then hold quantities by branch, warehouse, division, variant, batch, or serial number. Procurement, receiving, transfers, valuation, and replenishment all use the same branch-scoped stock records.

  • Products, categories, brands, units, variants, serial or IMEI tracking, and recipes
  • Multiple inventory divisions for warehouses, departments, food courts, or product groups
  • Purchase orders, supplier receiving, stock transfers, and destination acceptance
  • Movement ledger, valuation, cycle-count priorities, and controlled reconciliation
  • Low-stock analysis, replenishment forecasts, supplier ranking, and reviewed assistant drafts

Typical workflow

  1. 1Create the shared product record and assign it to the required inventory divisions
  2. 2Receive opening stock or supplier deliveries into the correct warehouse or branch
  3. 3Transfer, issue, sell, return, or adjust quantities through recorded stock movements
  4. 4Review valuation, ledger differences, reorder needs, and replenishment decisions

Access and data scope

Product identity is tenant-wide while quantities remain scoped to the store, inventory division, variant, batch, or serial record that owns them. Warehouse stock is not automatically treated as terminal stock.

A foundation workspace used by other modules

Designed for: Single shops, multi-branch companies, warehouses, central stores, production locations, and department stockrooms.

Core platform

Accounting

Branch-aware payment accounts and operating ledgers connected directly to sales and purchasing activity.

Keep financial activity connected to the transaction that created it. Sales, refunds, receivables, payables, and expenses feed account histories and reporting without losing branch or payment-account context.

  • Payment accounts with branch balances, defaults, and persistent transaction histories
  • Customer receivables, supplier payables, due dates, statuses, and settlements
  • Categorized expenses with references, approval state, and payment-account posting
  • Sales, return, and billing entries linked to their originating operational records
  • Revenue, margin, cost, promotion, payment-method, and branch reporting

Typical workflow

  1. 1Configure payment accounts and branch defaults
  2. 2Let sales, refunds, purchasing, fees, or billing create linked financial entries
  3. 3Record receivables, payables, expenses, transfers, and settlements
  4. 4Reconcile account histories and report by branch, period, account, or transaction source

Access and data scope

Accounts are available only to their permitted tenant and branch context. Financial permissions separately control viewing, creating, approving, settling, transferring, and reporting.

Restaurant

Coordinate tables, waiter orders, kitchen preparation, recipes, and counter payments in one flow.

Separate food-court, bar, wine-court, kitchen, and warehouse stock while sharing authorized users and management reporting. Confirmed orders move from service staff to kitchen tickets and then into POS settlement.

  • Dining areas, tables, seats, guests, occupancy, and active-sale state
  • Waiter-focused ordering with controlled confirmation into kitchen operations
  • Kitchen tickets with accepted, preparing, ready, served, priority, and cancellation states
  • Recipes, ingredient consumption, yields, and product composition costing
  • Separate inventory divisions and branch stock for food, beverages, and central kitchens

  2. 2Confirm items and route preparation work to the kitchen display
  3. 3Move tickets through preparation, ready, and served states
  4. 4Settle through POS while recipes and branch inventory record ingredient consumption

Pharmacy

Control medicine identity, prescriptions, batches, dispensing, expiry, recalls, and pharmacy stock.

Combine medicine-specific controls with the shared POS and inventory engine. Community and hospital pharmacies can receive batches, prioritize FEFO stock, dispense prescriptions, and preserve branch-level medicine history.

  • Medicine profiles, dosage details, prescription requirements, and product linkage
  • Batch receiving with quantities, cost, expiry, and FEFO availability
  • Quarantine, recall, expired-stock, and dispensing controls
  • Prescription review, dispensing records, and terminal stock deduction

Specialist workspace

Hospital Management

A separate clinical workspace spanning front desk, care delivery, diagnostics, pharmacy, stores, and billing.

Give each department a focused menu while maintaining one branch-scoped patient and encounter record. Role permissions control access to clinical work, results, records, stock, claims, and financial operations.

  • Patient registration, appointments, encounters, practitioner worklists, and clinical records
  • Emergency triage, inpatient wards, admissions, theatre, maternity, and pediatrics
  • Laboratory and radiology orders, result entry, reporting, review, and acknowledgement

People see the work their role requires

Administrators can assign modules, locations, roles, and individual actions independently. A cashier, teacher, pharmacist, accountant, or manager can therefore work from a focused view without receiving unrestricted access.

Modules define workspaces

POS, inventory, accounting, restaurant, pharmacy, hospital, and school each have a separate workspace. A disabled module is removed from the module dashboard and its routes remain protected.

Assignments define location

Tenant ownership is always enforced. Store, branch, campus, facility, warehouse, inventory division, and department assignments narrow the records a person can operate on.

Roles define responsibility

One person can work across approved modules or branches. Roles can separate cashier, stock, finance, kitchen, clinical, teaching, admissions, laboratory, and administrative duties.

Permissions define actions

Menu visibility follows read permissions, while create, edit, approve, transfer, dispense, settle, export, configure, and delete operations require their own authorization.

What keeps locations and teams connected

The shared capabilities behind local branch continuity, hosted administration, controlled access, and operational visibility.

Offline-Capable Desktop POS

The local application keeps checkout and local operations available without a continuous internet connection.

Secure Business Accounts

Each company has a separate account and can sign in through its managed subdomain or configured custom domain.

Two-way Data Sync

Local and hosted databases exchange branch-scoped operational records in resumable chunks with retries and clear failure visibility.

Branch License Activation

Generate downloadable store license files for activating and identifying local branch installations.

Business-Specific Onboarding

Business and branch types provide compatible defaults while onboarding records the modules, organization details, first branch, and operating preferences.

Division and Warehouse Stock

Products can be assigned to distinct inventory divisions while quantities remain owned by the correct branch, warehouse, variant, batch, or serial record.

Module and Menu Permissions

Module access, workspace menus, individual actions, branches, and departments can be assigned independently to each role or user.

MFA and Account Recovery

Protect hosted accounts with multi-factor authentication, authenticator or email challenges, recovery codes, password reset, and security settings controlled by the signed-in user.

Subscription Lifecycle

A 14-day hosted trial, visible subscription status, plan capacity, renewal processing, expiry handling, and store-specific local licences keep commercial access explicit.

Shared Administration

Organization settings, users, roles, stores, templates, audit history, diagnostics, and synchronization controls remain in one administration area.

Notifications and Reminders

Operational notifications, synchronization failures, subscription reminders, and transactional email delivery give users and administrators timely follow-up information.

Governed Data Integration

Validated workbook imports, scoped API credentials, idempotent writes, signed webhooks, retries, dead-letter history, and audit records support controlled connections to external systems.

Public Shop Profiles

Publish eligible businesses in the shop directory with company details, branding, contact information, and active branches.

Profile and Sales Export

How supported branch records synchronize

Changes are captured, exchanged, applied safely, and made visible for review while retaining their branch and organization context.

01

Capture

Supported local and hosted changes create durable synchronization events after the operational transaction succeeds.

02

Exchange

Authenticated branches push and pull records in bounded chunks using stable identities, branch context, and a persisted cursor.

03

Apply safely

Idempotency checks prevent duplicate application. Partial failures remain visible and retryable instead of discarding the entire batch.

04

Reconcile

Hosted dashboards consolidate accepted branch data while stock, sales, accounts, and audit history retain their originating branch.

Review the available operational tools
