Beauty and cosmetics on iVendNext

Beauty and cosmetics · checked 2026-10-24

The beauty stack: Set-up and extensions by a partner or your own team surround everything. On the left, your own ERP (SAP Business One, SAP S/4HANA, Acumatica, NetSuite or Sage X3, or any other your partner connects) and your WooCommerce web shop, each connected to iVendNext. Inside iVendNext: library apps on top, the one till in the middle, the shop at the bottom.

Beauty and cosmetics on iVendNext is for a beauty or cosmetics retailer. It runs on the iVendNext POS, the same till every store uses. Products are sold by lot with their expiry dates, members earn under plans you set, and a customer's code is checked before points or credit are used. Your own ERP keeps the books beside iVendNext. This section lists the apps for the industry, links each app's guide, and shows how a store is set up.
