Custom Windows POS with Bluetooth Printer
Budget: ₹12,500 – ₹37,500 INR
I need a small-footprint Windows application tailored for my dabeli outlet. The core workflow is straightforward: when a customer places an order I should be able to ring it up, print a combined bill-and-coupon on my Bluetooth thermal printer, and later scan the coupon’s code at the counter to mark the order as delivered. Everything has to feel as quick as a cash register yet still give me the back-office visibility of a full POS.
Key functions I must have
• Inventory management – live tracking of buns, masala, packaging, etc., with low-stock alerts.
• Employee management – simple logins, shift timestamps, and basic performance stats.
• Sales reporting – daily and monthly summaries, item-wise analytics, and CSV export.
Hardware integration
• Printer: works over Bluetooth; the app should auto-detect or let me pair it once and remember the device. Formatting must fit a 58 mm roll.
• Scanner: any USB barcode/QR reader. Scanning a coupon should instantly flip the order status to “delivered” and time-stamp it.
Quality checkpoints
1. EXE installer that runs on Windows 10/11 without extra paid dependencies.
2. Clean, touch-friendly interface; single-screen checkout flow.
3. Printed receipt shows bill details + unique coupon code/barcode.
4. “Delivered” status visible in real-time reports after a scan.
5. Source code and a short setup/manual so I can grow the system later.
If a lightweight stack such as C#/.NET with SQLite suits the job I am fine with it, though I am open to alternatives that keep deployment simple. Let me know your proposed tech, timeline, and any past example that proves printer or POS integrations you have handled.
