The Halsel Retailer Electronic Book-Keeper

Post by Alastair »

Whilst searching for something else in the pages of Dragon User I came across an advert in the September 1983 issue on page 34 for "the Halsel Retailer electronic book-keeper" by HALSEL Retail Systems Ltd. Which according to the advert is:
Based on the Dragon 32, the Halsel Retailer electronic book-keeper is a completely self-contained book-keeping system for the small shopkeeper.

At any point in time you can tell at a glance:

* your Sales and Profit position
* the value of stock you're holding
* how much you owe your suppliers
* when you intend to pay them, and
* your Bank Balance
* your cash register reconciled
* your VAT returns automatically calculated
* and have on file a printed Audit Trail for your Accountant
Does anyone have any information on this system, what was the software, was it ever produced, and if so how many were made or sold?
