SAP S/4HANA POS

SAP S/4HANA keeps the books. iVendNext runs the stores.

A SAP S/4HANA POS built around your own S/4HANA setup: iVendNext runs your stores on till, tablet and phone, and a connector made for your project on the Integrations Hub posts what the stores do to S/4HANA.

iVendNext POS is the selling app of iVendNext, the open retail platform, for retail chains of every size that run SAP S/4HANA.

What flows each way

What moves between SAP S/4HANA and your stores

Every S/4HANA setup is different, so your connector is built for yours. These are the records a project usually carries; your project agrees the exact documents.

From SAP S/4HANA to iVendNext, as agreed in your project	From iVendNext to SAP S/4HANA, as agreed in your project
Items and their prices Customers Vendors The stores and warehouses your stock sits in	Store sales and returns The payments taken at the till Goods received in the stores Stock transfers and stock counts

The Integrations Hub watches your S/4HANA connector like every other connection: what synced, what is waiting and what needs a decision.

The per-project route

A connector built for your S/4HANA

S/4HANA is set up differently in every business. So instead of one fixed connector, iVendNext builds yours on the Integrations Hub, which already does the hard parts of every connection: the queue, the retries, the record links and the difference list.

Map your setupAgree which S/4HANA records your items, prices, customers and stores come from, and which document each store sale, return and transfer becomes.
Build on the HubThe connector is built on the Integrations Hub, so it has the same watch screen, retries and difference list as every connection.
Test against your S/4HANAEvery connection is tested against your own system before it goes live.
Go live store by storeSwitch it on for the first store, then the rest, while S/4HANA keeps the books throughout.

Store depth

What iVendNext adds to SAP S/4HANA

SAP S/4HANA stays the system your finance team knows. iVendNext adds the store floor and the stockroom, built for retail chains with many stores.

One POS on till, tablet and phone

The same iVendNext POS on a counter till, a tablet and a phone, so staff learn one screen. It keeps selling when the network drops and catches up when it returns, and approvals arrive on the manager's own phone.

Stock work where the stock sits

iVendNext Handheld receives deliveries against the purchase order, moves stock, counts shelves and picks orders on a phone or a rugged scanner, on the same stock ledger the stores sell from.

Loyalty, promotions and payments

Earn and redeem loyalty points, run promotions and sell gift cards at every till, and take card terminals and mobile money, M-Pesa included, through your own payment provider.

Fiscal rules for your market

Tax and e-invoicing rules are configured per country, with country modules such as ZATCA in Saudi Arabia, eTIMS in Kenya and CFDI in Mexico, and partners build modules for other markets with the kit.

SAP S/4HANA POS questions

SAP S/4HANA POS: your questions

How does iVendNext connect to SAP S/4HANA?

Through a connector built for your own S/4HANA setup, as a project, on the Integrations Hub. The Hub gives it the same watch screen, retries and difference list as every connection.

Which documents move between the POS and S/4HANA?

The ones your project agrees. Usually items, prices, customers and vendors come into iVendNext, and store sales, returns, payments, receipts, transfers and counts go to S/4HANA.

Who maintains the connector?

The team that builds it for your project, CitiXsys or your iVendNext partner, and the Integrations Hub shows its health every day like every other connection.

Is iVendNext only for large S/4HANA retailers?

No. iVendNext runs retail chains of every size beside S/4HANA, from a few stores to many, with the same POS on till, tablet and phone.

Who sets it up, and how does support work?

Your project team sets it up with your SAP team. Support runs 24 hours a day, every day of the year, and a critical issue has a one-hour response target, as our support page publishes.
