Let us help you increase store profits.
Ordinary cash registers just hold cash. ARBAPRO for Windows goes far, far beyond that simple function. We’ll help you know your customers' tastes. Our loyalty programs keep your best customers coming back and spending more. You’ll get a handle on customer buying preferences, so you’ll be able to tailor your loyalty programs to ensure repeat business – and countless pricing options mean you can be as creative as you want with your merchandise pricing.

You’ll get a daily sales profitability report so you can maintain the balance between traffic generation and profit. And ARBAPRO for Windows will ensure that price adjustments are only given as intended – non-standard price modifications are controlled by employee access and reported on daily. It all adds up to a system that does more so you can earn more.

Save time – yours, your customer's, and your employees.
ARBAPRO for Windows also helps you save time on everyday record-keeping and paperwork so you can spend more time on the big picture decisions that really make a difference. You’ll find your entire inventory, ordering and receiving process fully automated – no small feat considering it can take managers working by hand up to 10 hours per week to do the same thing ARBAPRO does in minutes. Save hours on the day as you make global price and cost changes, put ranges of merchandise on sale globally, print price and shelf tags automatically. Use your customer database to create a mailing list almost instantly for targeted direct mail that can bolster sales. Inventory items update in real time, as they are sold at the register. House charges update customer balances immediately, and credit card authorization can be internet fast.

As you save time, so will your employees and customers. A simple, clear register screen combined with single key entry make operations smooth and quick. Receipt printing occurs simultaneously with sales. Optional layaways, accounts receivable, credit card authorization and check verification all enhance customer operations and flow.

ARBA Retail Systems uses PCCharge™ by VeriFone as our processing devise for PC based payment processing solutions.  PCCharge ™ is a PA-DSS validated solution that features many security safeguards and anti-fraud controls.  Through its use, merchants are one step closer to achieving Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliance and protecting their business interests. 

Streamline store management.
The ARBAPRO for Windows system includes a manager’s office workstation that allows you to run the store from behind the scenes, using a toolbox of reports and utilities that give you the information you need to make the decisions that matter most. ARBAPRO supports multiple vendors, part numbers and prices per item, and makes order recommendations based on automatic inventory analysis. You’ll be able to review these recommendations and then prepare purchase orders at the touch-of-a-button. The system allows you to add new items to inventory on the fly during receiving or purchasing, and to purchase non-stock items.

Use ARBAPRO’s extensive reporting capability to analyze your inventory and make vendor and sales rep contacts more productive – no more guessing which products you need, or when you need them. Use employee reports to determine who your top sales people are and boost morale (and hopefully profits) by letting them know. ARBAPRO provides a clear view of all the pieces of the profit puzzle. You put them together in infinite combinations.
