The Point of Sale (POS) screen is the fast, touch-friendly till for ringing up sales. You tap or scan products on the left, they collect in a cart on the right, and you take payment — all on one screen.
Opening the POS
- Open the Sales module in the top bar.
- Choose Point of Sale from the sidebar (or press the POS tile on the Home dashboard).
- The till loads with your product tiles on the left and an empty cart on the right.
The screen at a glance
- Product tiles (left): every product you sell, shown as buttons. Tap one to add it to the cart.
- Search bar (top): type a name or scan a barcode to find a product fast.
- Cart (right): the running list of what the customer is buying, with a live total at the bottom.
- Charge button (bottom-right): opens the payment screen when you're ready to take money.
Your first sale in 4 steps
- Add products — tap their tiles, or scan their barcodes.
- Check the cart — adjust quantities if needed.
- Press Charge — the payment screen opens with the amount due.
- Take payment and finish — hand over the receipt. The cart clears, ready for the next customer.
Tips
- Everything you sell here is also a normal sale in the system — the POS posts through the same engine your invoices use, so your reports stay accurate.
- You don't need a mouse. The whole screen is built for touch or a quick tap.
- Set up your tiles, default customer and printer once under Setup → POS so the till behaves exactly how your shop works. See Configure POS: tiles, departments, tills.
Common problems
- No products show up → your till may be pointed at a department with no stock. Ask an administrator to check the Selling department in Setup → POS.
- The screen looks cramped on a tablet/phone → the POS adapts to small screens; see Using POS on a phone or tablet.
