POS for Australia

POS software Australia: a till that shares stock and books

POS software Australian retailers can run on their own server: the RIVER ERP till, with stock and ledger in one install. We build remotely from Casablanca, in English. GST, EFTPOS and BAS reporting are custom work, scoped and quoted before anything is installed.

SCROLL

What it is

A till that posts into your stock and your books

POS software Australian shops can own: the RIVER ERP till is a touch-tile retail point of sale with sessions, cash counts, returns and Z-reports. Every closed sale is a stock movement and a ledger entry on your own server. It is licensed per domain, so another cashier costs nothing extra.

We are a remote studio in Casablanca, and we list no Australian clients. RIVER ERP is built Morocco-first: its chart of accounts and tax rules are Moroccan. For Australia, GST, BAS reporting and card terminals are custom work. This page says what that means before you spend a dollar.

Read the full RIVER ERP page, including its honest list of what it does not do, or our wider ERP service. The Australian parts follow our custom software development process. For online sales, see RAIN Store. The Australia hub covers the time zones.

Australian rules

What an Australian till has to handle

Today

What the till does today

Taken from the RIVER ERP product page. Nothing here is Australia-specific yet.

Touch-tile till

Retail point of sale with product tiles, returns and a barcode scan page in the inventory module.

Sessions and Z-reports

Cash counts, variance and an end-of-day Z-report for every session.

Stock and valuation

Multi-warehouse stock with FIFO or weighted-average valuation, batches and serial numbers.

One ledger

Every closed sale posts a stock movement and a ledger entry. The chart of accounts today is Moroccan.

Restaurant mode

Floor plan, kitchen and waiter screens, tips and loyalty on the same licence.

Installable web app

Runs on tablets and desktops. The stock scanner queues offline and replays when the signal returns.

Choosing

Hosted till or a till inside your own ERP?

Neither is right for everyone. This is how they differ.

Scope

What we would scope for an Australian till

These are the custom parts, quoted before any code is written.

  • GST codes and a tax-invoice layout with your ABN
  • A report of GST collected for each period, ready for your BAS
  • A chart of accounts mapped with your accountant, and an export if you use Xero or MYOB
  • An integration with your card terminal provider
  • Receipt printer and barcode scanner models tested before go-live
  • The hosting region agreed before any customer data is stored

Online and in store

One stock figure for shelf and website

If you also sell online, RAIN Store syncs orders, inventory, customers, returns and refunds both ways with RIVER ERP. Shelf and website then show one stock figure. Its checkout includes Stripe, PayPal and Adyen among 21 gateways, so check whether your gateway is covered. Afterpay and Zip are not named on the RAIN Store page, so we would confirm them with you first.

Pilot at one till

One till runs live first, while the old system stays as a fallback.

Roles are trained on their own screens. You receive the code, the documents and a walkthrough.

FAQ

POS questions from Australian buyers

What shops and cafes in Australia ask before they book a walkthrough.

1

Is this a ready-made Australian POS?

No. RIVER ERP is built Morocco-first, and its till has no Australian GST or card-terminal module today. Those parts are custom work. If you need a certified till next week, a hosted POS from a local supplier is the faster choice.

2

Does the till handle GST?

Not out of the box. We agree the GST codes, the tax-invoice layout and the period report with you and your accountant, write them into the scope and test them with your own sales examples.

3

Can it connect to EFTPOS or a card terminal?

Not today. We would integrate your provider’s terminal through its developer tools as scoped work. We say which providers we have not integrated before the quote, not after.

4

Do I pay per till or per user?

RIVER ERP is licensed per domain, so another till or cashier adds no fee. You still pay for hosting and your payment provider. There is no public price list, so you receive a scoped quote.

5

Who supports the till when something breaks?

Support terms are agreed in writing, because there is no published SLA. One engineer builds and supports RIVER ERP, and we are 9 to 10 hours behind the east coast. If you need guaranteed local support hours, choose a local vendor.

6

Does it work for a cafe or restaurant?

Restaurant mode has a floor plan, kitchen and waiter screens, tips and loyalty. The same GST and terminal work applies, so it is scoped the same way.
