Talos Systems Inc. (Headquarters: Chiba City, Chiba Prefecture; Representative Director: Ken Nakamura), which develops and provides "Talos NEX," a POS system specialized for the reuse industry with over 1,900 implementations nationwide, has launched its "Digital Ledger Option," which digitizes in-store purchasing operations and achieves complete paperless management of antique dealer ledgers.
By introducing this option, reuse stores can establish a smart reception system using tablet devices. This frees them from the cumbersome tasks of creating handwritten ledgers and managing identity verification documents, simultaneously improving the quality of customer service and dramatically reducing operating costs.
**Background: The Wall of "Analog Operations" Troubling Reuse Stores**
In the reuse market, which continues to grow to a scale of 3.2 trillion yen, in-store purchasing is the lifeline for inventory acquisition. However, the creation and management of "antique dealer ledgers" based on the Antique Dealings Act is a strict obligation, and many sites still face the following challenges that burden store operations:
* **Entry errors/omissions:** Risks of transcription errors due to handwriting and omissions of required items.
* **Management costs:** Securing storage space for large volumes of paper slips and the burden of managing them for the legally mandated period.
* **Low searchability:** Enormous time spent searching for relevant documents during police inspections or when inquiring about past transactions.
Talos Systems accelerates DX (Digital Transformation) in the reuse industry by completing these analog operations with in-store tablets.
**Main Functions and Features of the "Digital Ledger Option"**
1. **Smart Tablet Reception and Call System**
By performing reception on a tablet installed in the store, a smooth customer flow is established, preventing customers from waiting. This also prevents missed staff calls, contributing to an improved UX (customer experience).
2. **Digital Presentation of Appraisal Estimates (Improved Conversion Rate)**
Appraisal results are presented directly to customers on the tablet screen. Visually sharing specific reasons and breakdowns enhances customer satisfaction with the purchase content and promotes smooth agreement formation (conversion).
3. **Instant Digitization via Electronic Signature**
After agreeing to the appraisal, customers can sign directly on the tablet. The data is immediately saved to the system, eliminating the need for filling out paper application forms or filing.
4. **Digital Registration and Management of Identity Verification Documents**
Identity documents are photographed with a camera and digitally stored, linked to customer information. This not only eliminates the hassle of making copies but also reduces the risk of loss or leakage, achieving a robust security environment.
5. **Automatic Generation of Antique Dealer Ledgers and Advanced Searchability**
Upon completion of a purchase, a "digital ledger" compliant with the Antique Dealings Act is automatically created. Past transaction histories can be extracted within seconds by specifying conditions, allowing for immediate use in audit responses and marketing analysis.
**Benefits of Introduction**
* **Increase fans with "Transparency in Customer Service":** Build trust in the store through easy-to-understand digital appraisal presentations.
* **Drastically reduce "Management Costs":** Near-zero paper costs, printing costs, storage space, and search time.
* **Address "Labor Shortages" and Standardize Operations:** Automating administrative tasks allows even new staff to perform duties accurately and according to proper procedures.
* **Thorough "Compliance":** The system supports appropriate management in accordance with laws and regulations, preventing information loss.
