Ringing up a sale

Find products by barcode, name or SKU, change quantities, add notes, and use the keyboard shortcuts on the till.

Who can do this: Cashiers and anyone with the right to sell

The selling screen

The left side shows the products. The right side is the cart for the current order, with the totals and the Pay button underneath. On a phone the cart opens as a sheet from the bottom of the screen.

Each product tile shows its price. When the device is online, a tile can also show how many are in stock at this store and how many are held for online orders. That is only a hint; it never stops you selling.

Add products

  1. Scan the barcode with a barcode scanner. The item goes straight into the cart.
  2. Or type in the search box (Scan barcode or search name / SKU…) and tap the tile you want. Press Enter to add it when the code matches exactly or only one product is left.
  3. Or tap a category chip above the tiles to show only that category, then tap a tile. Tap All to see everything again.
  4. To scan with the device's camera, tap the camera button (Scan with camera) in the top bar. Each barcode you point at adds one item; keep scanning, then tap Done.

If a product has no price in this register's price list, the till warns you and does not add it. A manager adds the price under Catalog → Price lists.

Change quantities

  1. Use the − and + buttons on a cart line, or type the quantity in the box between them.
  2. For more options, tap the line itself. A number pad opens with Qty, Discount and Price.
  3. Stay on Qty, type the new quantity and tap Done.
  4. To take the item off the order, tap Remove line.

Notes on a line and on the order

  1. For a note on one item, tap the line and type in Note for this line, for example no sugar or gift wrap. It is printed under the line on the receipt.
  2. For a note on the whole order, tap Note under the cart, type it and save. It is printed on the receipt, for example delivery instructions.

Totals and paying

Under the cart you see the Subtotal, the Tax (incl.) contained in the prices, and the Total. When the order is ready, tap Pay. The button shows the amount, for example Pay LKR 1,250.00.

Under the cart the till may also show Customers also bought, a few items often bought together with what is in the cart. Tap one to add it.

To empty the cart without charging anything, tap Clear and confirm Clear cart.

Keyboard shortcuts

On a till with a keyboard: F2 jumps to the search box, F4 opens payment, F8 starts a new order, F9 opens Orders, and Esc goes back. The list is also in the register menu under Shortcuts.
