Functional Odoo 18

The Point of Sale (POS) module in Odoo 18 offers an intuitive interface for managing sales transactions, making business management easier. It allows for real-time inventory tracking, guaranteeing that stock levels are constantly current. For a smooth checkout process, you can additionally integrate customer management and payment alternatives. Furthermore, POS is dependable for a range of retail settings because it can be accessed offline as well as online.

The "Share Orders" option in Odoo 18 allows multiple users or salespeople to collaborate on processing a single customer order in the Point of Sale (POS) module. This is especially useful in environments like restaurants or retail stores where multiple staff members might interact with the same order. It ensures that all modifications and updates to orders are reflected in real time, preventing data discrepancies.
