- Promotions with scope and schedule, so a campaign starts together everywhere

Open outlets as a routine
Connect in minutes
Send a one-time connect code, open it on the till PC, and the outlet pulls its range, prices and users.
Watch it come online
The outlet shows as online with its app version, and any problem appears as an alert at head office.
Manage the licence pool
Allocate tills and users to each organisation from one pool, so a growing network stays within its licence.
Run the network by exception
| Signal | What head office sees |
|---|---|
| An outlet stops reporting | A branch-offline alert on the Home page and on the integration screen. |
| Sales are not reaching the ERP | The posting queue shows each held sale with the reason. |
| Tax signing is failing | The fiscal monitor shows the signing rate and the receipts needing attention, by branch. |
| Cash does not reconcile | End-of-day review compares each tender with the receipts head office holds. |
| An outlet is struggling | The roll-up compares sales, refunds and net across organisations over any period. |
FAQ
Common questions
How fast can a new outlet go live?
Once the franchisee's set-up is copied and the till PC is installed, a connect code brings the outlet online, and it receives its range, prices and users on the first pull.
Can every outlet run a campaign on the same day?
Yes. Promotions are authored with scope and schedule and published to the tills.
How do we keep outlets on the same software version?
Tills are installed from a signed package with a policy that every till in the fleet runs the same version.
Does it work with the ERP each franchisee uses?
Each organisation connects to its own Business Central company or SAP Business One.
