Cash register systems continuously evolve from simple cash desks to consulting or help desks and even to information points. An additional color TFT flat screen provides, beyond the conventional cash desk functionality, the possibility of displaying extra product information or commercials, and above all even moving screen animations or videos. This is in particular relevant and attractive to those cash desks with dual display option.
Hermes Software offers a distinctive and integrated customer management tool. In addition to the conventional functions such as a global customer search, locally or via network, and automatic transfer to the invoice, customer installation or customer change, the system also allows, by means of an Input Browser, a free definition of additional fields, which are automatically saved and, if desired, synchronized with downstream systems.
Little refinements such as phonetic name search or online duplicate crosscheck facilitate the work of an administrator, and avoid useless data and delight the user.

The back office module emerged as a further development to the existing back office functionality. The target group contains franchise partners of Hermes’ clients, who do not have a direct connection to the ERP system.
An exact distinction between parent company and franchise partners is possible thanks to the multiclient capability of the system.
Thus, the tool represents a universal platform for inputs and management of back office functions (customer management, product management, ordering system, electronic de-livery notes, storage location etc.), whether it is a mother company or a franchise partner.

Open Item Management
Originally planned as a voucher management system, the open item management server has developed into a powerful tool for managing and evaluating open items such as prepayments, vouchers, credit vouchers, clientbonuses. With the corresponding WebInterface, the open item server is not only accessible from any cash desk, but also from any PC (for example accounting or auditing). The standard interface enables the connection to an external system such as Web-Shop.
In this Web Solution, vouchers can be cashed and reserved. The administration interface enables filtering and management of open items including the corresponding history.
