We believe the efficiency of handheld Order
Entry System (OES) depends largely on the
handheld device.
Pointsoft utilizes "Pocket
PC" based PDA, like
the powerful HP iPAQ hx2410 with integrated
Wi-Fi, for order entry, which
forms
a natural extension of Pointsoft TableService.

|
Like
all our POS modules, orders are entered using
touch screen. System flows are also very
similar - meaning only minimal re-training
for crews. There are no hard to remember
PLU codes (1071 for Coke, 2513 for Caesar
Salad... you get the picture.) Menu are organized by
product families, and clearly displayed in
English or in the local language.
Different
Pointsoft OES modules are available for
restaurants, bars, and quick service
establishments.
