Document HACCP Digitally – Without Paper or an Extra App
June 20, 2026 · DiKAS Team · 4 min read
Every business that produces, handles or places food on the market has to implement and document an HACCP concept. In practice this means: measuring temperatures, logging cleaning, working through checklists – and all of it verifiable. On paper that is tedious and quickly full of gaps.
What HACCP means in practice
HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) means: identify critical points, control them and document the control. Typical ones are:
- Temperature checks (refrigeration, freezing, keeping warm)
- Cleaning and hygiene plans
- Incoming goods inspections
- regular checklists
When the food-safety inspectorate comes, it wants to see exactly these records.
HACCP directly in DiKAS
DiKAS includes HACCP documentation right away – in the same system as your POS:
- HACCP templates for recurring checks (e.g. the daily temperature check).
- Logs that record who checked what and when.
- Checklists to tick off on the job – directly on the device.
- Everything stored digitally and findable, instead of scattered in a binder.
Less effort, gap-free records
Because the documentation is created where the work happens, fewer gaps appear. No searching for loose sheets of paper, no after-the-fact “we already did that”. When there’s an inspection, you have the records cleanly to hand.
One system instead of many tools
POS, items with allergen management (EU-14), time tracking and HACCP in one system: that saves training, costs and double maintenance.
Conclusion
HACCP is mandatory – but no reason for a paper mess. When the POS brings the documentation with it, you meet the requirements along the way and are ready for every inspection.
