Features

Everything that shouldn't be manual — isn't.

Inventory, purchasing, end-of-day, and accountability tools that work together so your team stops chasing paperwork and starts running the floor.

Smart Inventory

Live stock counts across locations with low-stock alerts, auto-reorder thresholds, and waste tracking — so you stop guessing and stop running out.

Purchase Orders

Generate POs automatically from sell-through data. Receive against PO with barcode scanning and variance flags to catch shorts before they cost you.

End-of-Day Workflows

Cash counts, deposit slips, and tip-out reports generated automatically. Close out in minutes, not hours, with a clean audit trail every shift.

Recipe & Cost Control

Build recipes from inventory items to track real food cost and margin, automatically depleting stock as you sell — no more spreadsheet math.

Rules & Alerts

Trigger emails or texts when sales hit a threshold, a comp is rung up, or a register sits idle too long. You stay informed without standing over the floor.

Permissions & Audit

Role-based permissions and full audit logs so every void, comp, and price override is accountable — and shrinkage gets a lot harder.

Testimonials

Operators who run on Red River POS.

Auto purchase orders alone save my managers half a day every week. We used to over-order on slow weeks — now the system orders exactly what we need.
Marcus R.
Westside Market — San Diego, CA
End-of-day used to take an hour. Now it takes about ten minutes and the audit trail is bulletproof. Best decision we made this year.
Priya S.
Sunrise Café Group — Phoenix, AZ
The permission controls and alerts caught a problem at one of our locations within a week. The platform basically pays for itself.
