About this Product
Most retailers running Dynamics 365 Business Central either bolt on a disconnected third-party till or re-key sales into BC by hand at end of day. This app closes that gap. It is a touch-first Point of Sale built natively in AL as a per-tenant extension installed directly on your Business Central environment — not a separate system you have to reconcile against.
Cashiers ring up sales on a fast touch interface that reads live item, price and availability data from BC. Each completed transaction posts straight through to your Sales and G/L entries, updates Item Ledger Entries, and respects your existing dimensions, VAT/tax setup, and posting groups. There is no nightly export, no CSV bridge, no parallel ledger.
The POS keeps trading when the network drops. Offline mode caches the item catalog, prices and customer/loyalty data locally; transactions queue and reconcile automatically through the job queue once connectivity returns, so a single store outage never stops the till or corrupts inventory.
Because this is build-to-order, ECOSIRE scopes the till layout, payment methods, receipt format and store hierarchy to how you actually trade, then builds, installs and supports it. We use table and page extensions, event subscribers (e.g. on posting and item availability), and the BC REST/OData v4 API for any external payment terminal or e-commerce sync. Dedicated permission sets keep cashier, supervisor and back-office roles cleanly separated.
You get a real retail POS that lives inside Business Central, owns one source of truth for stock and revenue, and is maintained by the team that built it — including BC monthly/major update compatibility checks before each Microsoft release ring.
What you get
- A per-tenant Business Central extension (.app) authored in AL, built to your scoped requirements
- Installation and publishing onto your BC online or on-premises environment by ECOSIRE
- Configured store hierarchy, till/shift setup, payment methods and receipt layout for your operation
- Custom permission sets for cashier, supervisor and back-office roles
- Integration wiring to your payment terminal/gateway and any e-commerce or external system via REST/OData
- Source code, a deployment guide, and admin/cashier operating documentation handed over to you
Who this is for
Retail Operations Owner
Runs one or more stores on Business Central and wants the till to be part of BC — not a separate system reconciled by hand — so stock and revenue are always one truth.
Store Manager / Shift Supervisor
Needs fast counter checkout, split tender, returns and price overrides with proper authorization, plus reliable shift open/close and cash reconciliation per till.
BC Finance Controller
Cares that every sale posts to the correct G/L accounts, dimensions, VAT and posting groups automatically, with a clean audit trail and no end-of-day re-keying.

Frequently Asked Questions about Point of Sale (Retail POS) for Business Central
How long until the POS is live, and is this an instant AppSource download?
This is build-to-order, not an instant AppSource install. After a short scoping call to confirm your store hierarchy, payment methods and receipt needs, typical delivery is around one working week depending on complexity. ECOSIRE builds the AL extension, installs it as a per-tenant extension on your Business Central environment, configures it, and validates it with you before go-live.
How do ongoing support and Business Central updates work?
Because we build and install the extension, we also support it. ECOSIRE validates the app against each Business Central monthly and major update ring before Microsoft applies it, fixes any compatibility issues, and handles bug fixes and small enhancements under a support arrangement. You also receive the source code, so you are never locked to us if you choose to maintain it in-house later.
Does the offline mode risk double-selling stock or losing transactions?
No. Offline transactions are written to a local queue with their own identifiers and reconciled through the BC job queue when connectivity returns, with idempotent posting so a transaction is never posted twice. The local cache holds the last-known catalog and prices; once back online, inventory and finance entries are brought fully up to date.
Will sales really post into our existing finance setup correctly?
Yes. The POS posts through standard Business Central mechanisms — Sales and G/L entries, Item Ledger Entries, your posting groups, dimensions and VAT/tax configuration — using event subscribers rather than a side database. Finance sees POS revenue exactly as it sees any other BC sale, with full traceability.
Can it connect to our payment terminal, e-commerce store, or Power BI?
Yes. Card terminals and gateways are integrated via the BC REST/OData v4 API and AL event subscribers, scoped to the specific provider you use. Because the data lives in BC tables, it is also available through Dataverse / the Power Platform for Power BI dashboards and Power Automate flows. We confirm the exact integrations in scoping so quoting and delivery are honest.
