LIDIS · For horticultural retail

Your garden centre. Your checkout. All connected.

LIDIS is the retail management and POS system for horticultural retail. Connect plants, seasonal stock and accessories with purchasing, inventory and sales, giving your team more time for advice even during the busiest season.

Make everyday work easier

More clarity. From greenhouse to checkout.

One shared data foundation

Maintain plants, pots, compost and accessories with prices and stock records in one place.

Connect sales and stock

From goods receipts to checkout, stock movements remain part of a connected process.

Understand how plant groups and seasonal ranges perform with reporting on sales, gross profit and stock.

Your merchandise workflows

From plant purchasing to labelling.

Plants and accessories. Managed together.

LIDIS brings together plants, seasonal items, pots and compost with categories, prices and discounts. Supplier catalogues support product creation and updates. Images and plant texts enrich your range through suitable data connections.

  • Central product data
  • Prices and promotions
  • Use supplier data

From stock demand to checked delivery.

Order proposals take stock levels and sales figures into account. Purchase orders, goods receipts and invoice checks form a connected workflow. Automated ordering can be configured with agreed rules for recurring demand.

  • Identify demand
  • Record goods receipts
  • Check invoices

Know what is in stock. Across your locations.

Stock management, inventory counts and branch management provide visibility across your stock. Teams complete tasks on site according to their user permissions, keeping both head office and the sales floor informed.

  • Stock visibility
  • Simpler stocktaking
  • Connect branches

Trace every step from quotation to payment.

Quotations, sales orders and delivery notes work together. Invoices, credit notes, reminders and outstanding balances support financial processing. Electronic invoices can be sent and stored; formats and accounting transfers are agreed for your solution.

  • Connect documents
  • Track payments
  • Send e-invoices

The right information beside every product.

Create shelf, loop and adhesive labels, as well as posters, from your product data. Use the designer to adapt formats and layouts. Goods receipts or promotions can trigger print jobs. At the planting workstation, material consumption and order-related working time can also be recorded.

  • Reuse product data
  • Design labels
  • Control print jobs

Checkout that fits your business

The right POS for every sales location.

Keep the customer at the heart of checkout.

A touch interface tailored to your range and workstation supports your team at checkout. A customer display can show the receipt as it builds. Payment terminal, scales and fiscal integration are configured for the checkout. Digital receipts can be provided on a smartphone or by email.

  • Adaptable interface
  • Connect scales
  • Digital receipts

Scan independently. Pay independently.

Customers scan their purchases and complete payment themselves. Individual layouts, gift voucher sales and redemption, and notifications when assistance is needed support the process. A 24/7 extension is planned alongside suitable access and payment systems.

  • Support your team
  • Use gift vouchers
  • Adapt the layout
Illustration: a customer scans a potted plant at a self-checkout with an example shopping screen and card terminal.

One checkout. Two ways to serve.

Use the same device as a staffed checkout or for self-checkout. Switch between modes according to customer traffic and staffing, adapting the checkout to the working day.

  • Switch flexibly
  • Use one device
  • Handle busy periods
Illustration: a hybrid checkout in a garden shop combines staffed service with self-checkout; an example screen shows both operating modes.

Sell wherever your customers are.

Advice and checkout take place beside the products. Mobile POS complements fixed checkouts during seasonal peaks or events. Your team can complete sales around the site without returning to the main checkout each time.

  • Beside the products
  • Add seasonal capacity
  • Reduce walking

LIDIS 4

LIDIS 4: Clearer workflows. A simpler way forward.

For horticultural retailers, LIDIS 4 combines a renewed technical foundation with a clear interface. Tabs, new icons and an organised task area help your team navigate everyday work. The interface is designed for modern screen resolutions, while open interfaces support connections to other systems.

  • Clear tab navigation
  • Tasks in one clear view
  • Open to other systems

Mobile working: One app for warehouse and sales.

The new LIDIS app brings together the former Starter, Mobile and Edit apps. Your team can access item, stock and order data in real time on a smartphone – in the warehouse, at the point of sale and on the shop floor. Purchase orders and label printing can be handled directly in the app. An interface optimised for mobile devices supports quick data entry without switching between multiple apps.

  • Three apps in one solution
  • Live data where you work
  • Order and print labels

API

Connect systems. Exchange data in both directions.

The API lets external online shops, POS systems and apps connect directly to your business management system. They can retrieve information from the business management system and pass new transactions back. Real-time communication connects processes across applications and helps avoid duplicate data entry. Access and data scope are agreed for your integration.

  1. 01Retrieve from the business management system: items, prices, stock levels and customers
  2. 02Send to the business management system: orders, invoices and deliveries
  3. 03Communicate in real time and automate workflows
Illustration: retail management, online shop, checkout and app exchange products, prices and stock as well as orders and invoices.

DATEV

Connect your retail management system with accounting through DATEV. Support further processing by your accounting team and tax adviser. We agree with you which data is transferred.

Efsta

Connect Efsta for the fiscalisation of your checkout data. We align the setup with your checkout environment and the country of operation.

Fleurop

Integrate Fleurop vouchers into your checkout workflows. With the appropriate voucher types and partner details, LIDIS supports sales and redemption directly at the till.

Electronic shelf labels (ESL)

Item number, name, price and unit are synchronised. Prices and stock data are updated regularly; price changes and new listings can trigger updates. Location and shelf information link labels to the right products.

Figures you can act on.

Compare revenue, gross profit, quantities and stock over chosen periods. Fast- and slow-mover analysis shows how your range is developing. Business intelligence also highlights negative stock, write-offs, open orders, partial deliveries and incomplete product data.

  • Compare key figures
  • Review your range
  • Spot action needed
