Focus POS - Bars & Nightclubs Auditing

Bars & Nightclubs Auditing & Control

Auditing & Control Overview

Control and auditing functionality within a point of sale is paramount in Bars and Nightclubs. Numerous control and auditing features within Focus ensure accountability is maintained throughout each step of the point of sale process. Liquor management, timed rates, advances, blind checkouts and IP camera logs are a few of the critical audit and control features within Focus Fast Bar and Nightclubs

Liquor Management

Focus integrates with several 3rd party liquor inventory management systems to ensure what was ordered matches what was poured. Differences in the amount of liquor poured and ordered can then be displayed on Inventory Detail Reports. In addition to 3rd party liquor management integration, Focus has built in inventory controls to record, maintain and monitor liquor inventory. Simple Menu Item Reports display the liquor cost and percentage based on the actual liquor sales and the cost associated with the liquor menu items.

Timed Rates

Focus uses Timed Rates to control hourly charged games such as pool tables and dart boards. A price is automatically calculated according to the length of time the customer plays. Multiple rates can be charged over different time periods to help increase business during slow or peak hours.

Advances

Advances are used to keep track of money that is temporarily “lent” to customers so they may spend it on video games, dart boards, pool tables, etc. Advances are included on customer’s tabs but not included in sales totals.

Blind Checkouts

Focus allows the manager to perform a Blind Checkout for each employee assigned to a cash drawer. Employees can simply clock out and declare the amount of cash in the cash drawer. Managers can then print a drawer report, count down the drawer and determine the over/short for the employee’s previously worked shift.

IP Camera Log

The optional IP Camera Log interface allows register activity (such as discounts, voids, no sales, error corrects, etc.) to be easily inserted into the video feed and viewed from remote locations

Age Verification

Age Verification Overview

Focus integrates with CSSN’s revolutionary new Snapshell camera scanner to read and capture driver’s license information quickly and accurately. ID’s can be processed within 2-3 seconds. Age Verification uses government issued ID cards such as a driver’s license to determine if the customer is eligible to purchase a menu item that requires an ID. Focus prevents the designated items from being ordered if the minimum age requirement is not met

Types of ID's

CSSN’s Snapshell camera scanner is capable of reading driver’s licenses and ID cards of all 50 US states and over 45 countries around the world (like Mexican Voter Cards). Additionally, the validity of a driver’s license can be determined using legacy Ultraviolet and Infrared technologies.

Proof of Age

Focus displays and records the results of each scan on the guest check. Management can easily view the employee that scanned the ID as well as the scanned results by simply recalling the guest check

Manual Override

Some IDs may be worn out or just not able to be scanned. In this scenario, selected management can be authorized to override the age requirement for the selected menu item. The manager that entered the override will be displayed and recorded on the guest check.

Employee Safeguards

Mandating that employees secure a valid ID (that meets the age requirement) safeguards your bar from underage drinking. With Focus Age Verification working for you, you can finally get the peace of mind you deserve!
