Project Context
Overview
DurioPOS was born from real operational needs while running a premium durian retail store. Generic retail POS systems assume fixed-unit manufactured goods, which does not match the reality of fresh durian operations.
Point of Sale & Lot Inventory System · Status: Product Development
DurioPOS
Development of a point of sale system for the durian business, focusing on sales, lot-based inventory, quality control, cost tracking, and profit calculation.
Field Bottlenecks
Operational Challenges Addressed
In the durian business, fruit arrives in batches (lots) with varying weights, natural weight shrinkage, daily quality control sorting, conversion from whole fruit into packed pulp, and customer quality guarantees. Tracking all of this across generic POS tools and spreadsheets made daily reconciliation slow and error-prone.
Solution Focus
Core Capabilities in DurioPOS
DurioPOS is purpose-built to unify cashier sales, lot-based inventory tracking, quality control status logs, and accurate cost and profit calculations per batch.
Lot-Based Inventory Management
Tracks every incoming shipment as a distinct lot complete with initial weight, piece count, and acquisition cost.
Quality Control (QC) & Conversion Logging
Records sorting outcomes, conversions from whole fruit to packaged packs, and warranty replacements so physical stock matches system records.
Fast & Practical Cashier Workflow
Designed so store staff can record transactions quickly during busy hours without confusing menus.
Per-Lot Cost & Profit Calculation
Gives business owners clear visibility into the net margin and performance of every incoming shipment lot.
Field Takeaways
Lessons from Development & Operations
- Operational software must be shaped around real cashier and warehouse workflows, not abstract assumptions.
- Simplicity for front-line staff is the single most important factor in keeping operational data clean and accurate.
