Selling with the POS

Available in: 🖥️ Desktop · Windows

Open the sales shift

Sign in to Desktop, select the store, and open POS. Before starting, confirm the printer and other required devices appear connected.

Build the cart

1. Scan a barcode or find the product.
2. Repeat to add units or change the line quantity.
3. For an item without a product record, use MISC, enter a useful description, and set its price.
4. Review every line before payment. Depending on terminal settings, you can edit the line total or unit price; for weighed products only the unit price can be edited.

Removing a line changes only the open cart. Completed sales keep their original lines and details.

Take payment

1. Choose Pay and confirm the total.
2. Select cash, card, or another visible payment method.
3. For cash, enter the amount received and return the displayed change.
4. Wait for confirmation before starting another sale.
5. Hand over the printed receipt or reprint it from the sale.

What Salut ERP does automatically

Each line is rounded separately. On completion, the sale, lines, payment, and receipt remain linked; inventory updates and reports keep a snapshot of names and prices.

Sell by weight

Selecting a weighed product always opens verification. If the scale is available, place one stable product on it and accept the reading. If it is unavailable, Salut ERP offers manual entry; use it only as a fallback. Every weight capture creates a separate line, even for the same SKU. Weighed MISC follows the same process.

Offline

Desktop can keep the operation prepared for short interruptions. Do not close the application or repeat a payment whose result is uncertain. When the connection returns, let it synchronise and confirm the sale in Reports. For the correct response to each message, see Troubleshooting.
