Hi @youssef,
I did not do any test for POS Awesome, congrats for that work.

Are you going to merge it to the main ERPNext system?

I will do tests and let you know comments insha allah.

Thx

Hello, Its great to have this new app which is so much attractive and user friendly.

May i know how to add discount in item line as well for Grand Total. Even the taxes are note getting fetched from item tax.

[youssef]

For discounts check POS Profile

And for Taxes check in sales invoice “TAX BREAKUP” section after submitting the Invoice

[Amalusare]

I got the discount. But unable to get the taxes.

As my all the items have TAX 5%. Price of the item is 271. When TAX 5% is included then grand total should be 285.

This is my POS.

This is the Sales Invoice.

I want 285 as grand total in POS Awesome. How can i get it.

[Muzzy]

Pos awesome is currently tax inclusive only. Please read the thread by developer. He has mentioned it above.

[rahy]

I think you are mistaken by the term included.

If your price is 271 including 5% tax then the real price (what you receive after tax) is 271-(271*5%)=258
While if it is excluding 5% tax then 271+(271*5%)=285

If you want the price to include tax but you want to receive nett 271 then you should list the price as 285 so 285-(285*5%)=271

First of all nice work and keep on improving. Is always good to have a second and different POS.
Will yours support Offline or just Online ?

[Amalusare]

Thank you! i got this.

But how can i fetch the tax data in my print format.

[rahy]

As @Muzzy said the POS can only do tax inclusive. Meaning you have to include the tax in price (list the price to 285 instead of 271).
Hence the pos will deduct the tax in the invoice.

[Amalusare]

Yes i got this but i want taxes to be reflected in Print format.!

In the red box i want TAX amount: 10.

How can i get that.

[rahy]

Have you defined the sales tax template?
And get the printed field accordingly.
Like you did here

@Amalusare

This is my POS.

I’m sorry that I don’t use POS so my suggestion might not be straightforward.

[Amalusare]

Sales Tax template is used at the time of Sales Invoice or POS Invoice.

I’ve added TAX - 5% in each item. So that at the time of Sales it should reflect in print format also.

In POS Awesome the taxes are coming, But in Print format nothing is coming. I want taxes in Print format to which is 10.56.

[youssef]

You can create a custom Print format as you need
I recommend you check these:

Why reading OFFLINE POS SETTINGS - Print format field as this is for Offline.
I have this field with a Custom Print format which is for Offline and when trying to load does not work.
Maybe just add a Print format field under POS AWESOME SETTINGS for Online Print format.

This what i get

And on the Browser shows only this
{{ body }}

[Helio_Jesus]

Maybe add buttons for Cash payment like below

In which when user clicks on C to clear and on any button (e.g. 1,000) twice keeps on adding up.

Or like in the V13 (add by 50 or 100) or even better under settings allow four buttons to add bills as per each Country requirements.

Please review this :

Print Preview Error {{body}}

This week, one of my clients and I discovered this problem, where PDF generation creates an empty page with {{ body }}. I want to discuss in detail, including the solution. As others have mentioned, when you try to print a PDF, ERPNext must write a document to a DocType named Access Log. That DocType has a related MySQL table named “tabAccess Log” If ERPNext cannot write a record to this table? Then the PDF generation fails. On your web browser, all you see is {{ body }}. That’s not helpf…

[Helio_Jesus]

Thanks for the reply will investigate but it’s strange because this custom POS print format works well on POS so why not when printing on yours!

[sjain]

Does it support cash drawer and pole display for showing the prices? If yes, please suggest how to connect pole display for showing the prices to customer.

[sjain]

Also, would like to know a few more feature can be added to POS -

1. Item-wise taxes, if I have 5 line items in the order and they’re 5%, 12%, and 18% in nature. Then how to define those? As currently, it takes only one tax template defined on POS Profile only
2. Currency Denominations while opening/closing of POS Shift?
3. Capture Credit Card / Debit Card details like last 4 digits and transaction id.
4. Payment via prepaid card and balance of the card shown in POS.
5. Generation of gift vouchers at the time of making payment. For example - If you make the purchase of 1000 USD you get a coupon worth 10 USD free. Which can be used in the next purchase.
6. Keyboard shortcuts if we can define in POS, as most of POS cashiers are friendly with keyboard and they have time to mouse to navigate.

Thanks in Advance!

Cheeers!!
