Supermarket checkout lanes with shared stock and weighing scales
Multiple lanes billing against one live stock position, with scale-weighed items priced correctly.
- Multi-lane billing
- Weighing scale integration
- Live stock deduction
- Price lookup by code
The problem
Lanes ran independently and reconciled at night, so stock was a day behind and loose items were keyed by hand with frequent pricing errors.
What we built
We integrated scales directly into the billing screen and had every lane write to one stock ledger, so the position is live across the floor.
