Posted on by 67

We have a small to medium size customer who is in retail business, we have calculated the license cost and it is a bit too expensive, on the other hand Business Central includes all the functionality for managing sales, purchase, employees but it does not mention it has the point of sale functionality. Can someone please confirm this point?

Thanks a lot

    Hi

    Maybe best is for you to have a look to license guide here:

    basically, premium is essential + service order management and manufacturing

    docs.microsoft.com/.../ui-experiences

    and then opne the link to the license guide:

    The Business Central Device license is another type of additional user that works within Business Central. As with a team member license, a device license is not a primary license, but includes some capabilities of a full user. The device license is intended to be used on a specific computer and have multiple people logged into it over the course of the day. It is intended to be used to operate a point of sale device, a shop floor device, or a warehouse device to keep track of inventory, time sheets, sales, or service transactions. A device license can be customized to provide whichever services that a specific device may need to have.

    Faiza,

    Business Central functionality does not include a Point-of-Sale solution. If you are looking for POS functionality you would look at the available APP's in AppSource. Here is a link to see a listing:

    appsource.microsoft.com/.../apps

    I have implemented LS Retail.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    Steve
