More Retail Loss and Theft Prevention Features From Your POS System
Receipt Voids
Some cashiers will void an entire ticket after the transaction and pocket the money if someone pays with cash. KORONA POS includes customizable features that require authentication preventing internal theft.
No Sale Tender
A blank receipt is often cashed out to open the cash drawer. KORONA POS allows you to prevent this. It’s better to keep the cash drawer closed as much as possible as part of loss prevention practices.
Force Drawer Closing
The KORONA POS retail loss prevention software doesn’t allow any new actions if the drawer is open. This stops potential risks and cashiers from operating the drawer ajar and is accessible at all times.
KORONA Studio Access
Customize access control systems and protect your retail business from employees entering the back-office system to alter prices so that they can purchase or sell items at a steep discount.
Item Voids
Prevent cashiers from voiding individual items with unauthorized removal. Even if you decide to allow voids, KORONA POS will record all actions in each staff member’s employee shift report.
Blind Balance
Add a setting that requires employees to drop their cash drawer blindly at the end of the shift. This loss prevention strategy stop risk of theft and allows you to notice patterns and pick out bad apples.
