Barcode billing software is the till feature that reads a printed code on a pack and drops the correct item on the invoice. In a busy Bangladesh shop, typing product names slows the queue and invites wrong prices. A scan adds the SKU, quantity, and stock movement in one step.
Riser POS Retail is Dimdul's POS software for shops in Bangladesh. The product hub is POS software in Bangladesh; this article covers barcode billing only. For loose rice or oil by weight, see POS for a grocery or super shop. For stock counts after sales, see retail inventory software. Medicine barcode billing lives on Riser POS Pharmacy.
Why barcode billing beats typing names at the counter
A shop counter in Bangladesh sells to walk-in buyers who expect speed and correct totals. The till should record each line, payment type, and stock movement without a second notebook at closing.
That workflow differs from a distributor godown or a restaurant kitchen. Bulk wholesale lives on Riser POS Dealer. This guide stays on the retail shop till.
Handwritten bill vs barcode till
| Question | Paper counter | Barcode billing (Riser POS Retail) |
|---|---|---|
| Item on the bill | Clerk types a name; easy to pick the wrong SKU | Scan adds the exact product and price from the catalog |
| Speed at peak hour | Queue grows while the clerk searches | Beep-and-add keeps the line moving |
| Stock after the sale | Separate count or guess | Quantity reduces with the scanned line |
| Receipt | Hand total or calculator tape | Thermal receipt with line detail |
How to scan a packed item and print a shop bill
Use this sequence on the counter (it matches the HowTo structured data on this page for search and AI summaries):
- Open a new bill on the Android till or Windows counter.
- Scan the barcode with a handheld scanner or the phone camera; confirm the pack matches the name on screen.
- Set quantity when the customer buys more than one of the same pack.
- Take payment—cash, card, or mobile wallet as you configure at install.
- Print the receipt and confirm stock dropped for each scanned line.

Hardware is sold separately. For a complex printer or drawer setup, Dimdul technicians install on site; for a normal counter, Dimdul guides you to fit gear from hardware instructions.
