Stations
Stations can be used to group products and ease POS setup. 

Functionality

  1. Users can create stations which are applicable for the business.
  2. Setup Fast Keys for a station in POS.
  3. Login in and process sale using the fast keys specific to the station. Users need to select the station layout when logging into POS.
  4. Users will be able to search or scan and to process other items in the inventory.

For example, a supermarket can have a setup as below.

  1. 3 cashier checkout. These cashiers only process sale of products arranged in supermarket aisle.
  2. 1 cosmetics checkout. This cashier will process sale of all cosmetic items in the supermarket.
  3. 1 liquor checkout. This cashier will process sale of liquor in the supermarket

For the above setup, we can create 3 stations as "Grocery", "Cosmetic" and "Liquor". Setup the fast keys for "Comestible" to have all cosmetic items. When the cashier logs in the cosmetician station, POS fast key will be configured with all cosmetician items.
