Point of Sale (POS)

Sell in person and keep your accounts in step: products and tills, recording sales, and how POS posts to your ledger.

POS that feeds your accounts

The Valix till lets you sell in person, and — unlike a standalone POS — each sale posts straight into your accounts. That means your sales, VAT and stock stay accurate without re-keying at the end of the day.

Products & tills

  • Set up your products with prices and the correct VAT rate.
  • Organise items so they are quick to find at the till.
  • Ring up sales and take payment.

How a sale reaches your ledger

When you complete a sale, Valix records the income, the VAT, and the movement of stock, posting the double-entry to your general ledger. Your profit and loss and VAT return include POS sales automatically.

Card payments

In-person card payment capture is being rolled out. Cash and other tender types record and post to your accounts today.

Frequently asked questions

Do POS sales appear in my VAT return?

Yes — POS sales post to your ledger with VAT, so they are included in the relevant VAT return automatically.

Does POS track stock?

Yes — completing a sale records the stock movement alongside the income.
