System Information

icon-presto-configuration-modularity

High modularity of the system allows you to use software PRESTO from a simple setup to a complex hierarchical configurations operating from a single PC environment running without a database server to a complex hierarchical configuration using a local area network and the Internet.

In terms of operations, the system can be used for small establishments working in the field of trade and services, which may function as a simple cash register connected to various peripherals or the installation can have more complex structure using a database server, several points of sale and various connected peripherals.

A special case of the operation is working in restaurants, cafes and bars. In such establishments it is also possible to operate as a simple cash register or work as multiple selling points with peripheral devices such as order ticket printers connected via serial interface or local area network.

For medium and large companies with a hierarchical organizational structure we offer the possibility of transferring data online over the internet. In this setup a company headquarters data center is collecting documents from selling points and it has immediate information about documents created at each selling point. On the other hand a flow of product specifications, price lists, lists of customers and other information is traveling towards selling points.

Next figure shows you the possible scenarios of PRESTO operation.
