Real-time API
Where your vendor offers an API, Backline connects directly.
Sales, staff and stock flow in as they happen. You set it up once.
How it connects
Keep your POS. Add the layer that makes sense of it.
Backline sits on top of the systems your outlets already use. There's no new POS to roll out, no retraining and no migration weekend.
Two ways your data gets to Backline.
Monitored exports
Where it doesn't, Backline reads your scheduled reports.
Your system exports its usual reports on a schedule into a folder Backline watches. Backline picks them up automatically. Nobody re-keys anything.
Either way, every screen shows when its data was last updated, so you always know how fresh a number is.
What it reads.
POS
Sales by item, outlet, hour and channel
HR & roster
Scheduled shifts, hours and wage cost
Inventory
Stock on hand, usage, suppliers, unit costs
Delivery platforms
Orders and your actual commission rates per platform
Plus the settings you give it: target labour band, weekly profit target, margin floor, rent terms and fixed costs.
Backline's access to your POS is read-only. It doesn't change prices, menus, rosters or orders in your systems.
Works with the POS systems Singapore F&B already runs on.

Questions owners ask
Do I have to replace my POS?
No. Backline sits on top of the POS you already run.
Can Backline change anything in my POS?
No. Access is read-only. Recommendations come to you as drafts.
What if my POS doesn't have an API?
Backline reads scheduled report exports from a folder it monitors.
How current is the data?
With an API connection, as current as the API allows. With exports, as current as the last scheduled export. Every screen shows the last-updated time.
