Inventory Management

Garden centers normally have a large amount of inventory, especially in springtime. Keeping track of your perennials from your annuals can be a tangled mess for seasonal help. Point of sale software can help you load your products quickly, and give new hires the information they need to make the sale with organization, product knowledge, pricing information, and even location information.  Track inventory to and reduce out-of-stock situations with inventory management functions.

Point of Sale

It’s summer and you have a line-up of customers with carts stacked with bedding plants. You can speed up your checkout line and reduce costly errors by using a barcode scanner. You can also check in received shipments easily. A customized multi-functional point of sale transaction screen can be used in either touch or click format, which makes price checking and your customers' checkout experience that much quicker.

Accounting

Need to process your Accounts Payable, create ledger and balance sheets, income and expense statements, and other documents? Windward's Integrated Accounting helps you manage your budget without the headache of duplicate entry and additional number crunching.
