Liquor and wine on iVendNext

Liquor and wine · checked 2026-10-24

Liquor and wine on iVendNext is for a liquor, wine or beer retailer. It runs on the iVendNext POS, the same till every store uses. Each bottle and case is a unit with its own price, each vintage you keep apart is a lot, and spirits, wine, beer, tobacco and vapes are checked for age at the till. 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.
