Re: POS order
Hi All
I have some questions regarding the pos and the order relations
If I go and open the pos terminal using startofbiz.bat on a windows machine
and chose some products then clicked "save sale"
this means my sales order is successfully completed? how can I make sure?
where can I see that in the database?
Shall I see this order when I go to the order manager? is the order done by
the POS terminal is treated as an order and it's saved in the orderheader
table.
I've tried to make order through POS but I couldn't find it in the order
list in the order manager is that natural or the order I've made through the
POS wasn't successful?
As a matter of fact I don't need all the options found in the POS but I
wanted to skip the shipping steps in the ordinary order screens but I found
that even if I used quick "finalize with default options" I'm asked about
the shipping address of the customer and shipping options ans such staff so
I decided to explore the POS
Also something crossed my mind what if I set the customer in the order entry
screen to "_NA_" will I be able to escape from entering the shipping address
of that customer?
Thanks in advance for anyone who can help

POS is Point of sale
which means that you have it in hand to sell.
other wise use the order entry.

Although something crossed my mind about the order statuses I know it's
completed what if it needs a stock move? will that cause kind of
contradiction
Thanks in advance

Hi Jacques
Thanks a lot for your previous reply
I have more inquireis about the POS and I really wish you could help me with
them
Now I'm thinking of using the webpos and I've tested it and made a
successful order and saw it in the order manager and that was great and it
had the status of completed.
I want to have the following scenario in my POS
The customer is asking about a product and this product is not in my retail
store right now so I want to make a stock move between stores I know this is
very normal in the ordinary order but how this cases are handlel in the POS
when a csuometr asks about a product and this product has finished from your
store and you'll move it from other stores ?
Can I set is automatically fulfilled to N
how to handle these cases as a user ?
Thanks in advance

Yes, it's an order, look at the Order manager (or if you prefer you can use Entity Maintenance in Webtools)

Yes. During development stage, I recommend to use startofbizBoth.bat (I did not create the same for sh, but it's easy to do from it)
to make investigations easier.

You should see it. Did you finalize the order (pay for it)? Also, if finalized, the POS ordes are always in the completed state, so
check the check-box...

By default you don't ask customer information in the POS situation. But you might want to associate a customer (to use promotion
code for instance, or any reasons actually), then use PROMO/CUSTOMER PROFILE buttons
