Point of Sale (POS)

The POS module records sales directly at the counter of your physical shop, with an interface built for the speed of a till.

Making a sale#

1. Go to POS in the main menu.
2. Find products: use the search bar or scan the barcode.
3. Add to cart: click the product, or press Enter when scanning.
4. Adjust quantities: with the + / − buttons in the cart.
5. Apply a discount (optional): by percentage or fixed amount.
6. Apply a coupon (optional): enter the code if the customer has one.
7. Select the customer: look up an existing customer or sell as a guest.
8. Take payment:
   • Pick the method (cash, card, bank transfer, store credit).
   • For cash, enter the amount received and the system works out the change.
9. Finish: click "Charge" to complete the sale.
10. You can print the receipt or send it to the customer.

Cash register#

• When you open a shift, the starting cash amount is recorded.
• When you close a shift, the register is reconciled: the system compares what was expected against what was declared.

Invoicing from the POS#

If ARCA electronic invoicing is set up, you can issue the electronic invoice with its CAE straight from the sale, without leaving the POS.

AI assistant in the POS#

The POS includes the AI assistant: you can ask for products in plain language ("show me the black trainers in size 42") and look up figures without stepping away from the till.

POS sales history#

All counter sales are kept under Orders → POS orders, with their detail, payment method and salesperson.
