Hey backers @rmehta want to claim the bounty based on POS Redesign For me I think there are few features in the bounty left out:

1- customer queue, where we can have more than one cart active and switch between them
2- easy fast way to edit customer details
3- Numeric keypad to enter value in quantity and rate field
4- Email option to send print of the invoice

looking forward to get your inputs

Thanks @ganas, for me I put bounty for 1&2 missing features!
It is essential for any kind of modern POS system and I need it to use in Resturants business

Hi @ganas

Thanks for following up on this.

Item 1 & 3 is essential to any POS system. That is my opinion.

Maybe @rmehta can clarify on the missing features first. We may missed out something or he has a good reason to.

I assumed issue (1) is solved because you can open as many invoices as possible and switch between them by clicking the list button (the one beside the new invoice button directly by the select or add new customer field)

(2) is very necessary
(4) is also very necessary
(3) is ideal to enhance the touch screen experience

@rmehta would you mind addressing this please???

Regards

On a touchscreen device, whenever the input field is focused, the numeric keypad shows up automatically. So (3) shouldn’t be a problem.

Also, as @olamide_shodunke pointed out, (1) is covered.

We can work on (2) and (4) :slight_smile:

@rohit_w looks great.

Grate Work @rohit_w, but How can I use this in restaurant?
Should I create walking customer?
What about tables?

Hi @Mohammed_Redha,

Can we add text field(Notes) in the POS and you can add the table information in that field. This field will be display in the toggle list view, or you can create the customer based on table no and make invoice against them

I don’t think restaurant POS was a part of this project. Maybe a new Issue?

Won’t it work for you by treating ‘Table numbers’ as customers?

Like @rmehta said Restaurant PoS should be a new issue, I am interested in that feature too, but would want the main PoS resolved first

Yes please - this is essential

I also would love to see Restaurant module in POS. Would open a whole new segment for ERPNEXT. But I feel one step at a time is the need. Once the new POS passes UAT then Restaurant POS can be taken up. Whilst doing restaurant it would be appropriate to work on Hotel management module (bookings, rooms, occupancy, Telephone billing etc).

A big thank you to all the folks who are contributing with development, time, money and feedback.

May the force be with you!!!

I added $100 on the bounty through my Paypal account. The transaction went through fine, not sure why bounty page didn’t get updated. Will wait for 24 hours to see if it does.

Thanks @Muzzy your contribution has been added to the bounty. Just one quick note: this funding is going to the features stated earlier and agreed upon before starting the bounty, and thanks for the frappe team as they took the challenge to implement it and they almost finalizing it and will come in version 8. All I’m saying that this has nothing to do with restaurant pos which should be a separate issue in a different topic where interested people can come together to discuss required restaurant like pos features and the interface mockups and maybe start a new bounty. I’d love to contribute to restaurant pos but someone need to get the ball rolling :slight_smile:

Would it be possible to add the possibility to pass information into the new POS as it used to be possible in previous versions? Can that be added to bounty?

See Pass information into POS transaction in new versions

The features in this bounty were finalized two and half months ago, the contributors funded that set of features, and the frappe team already working on it and they will claim the bounty as soon as version 8 is out.
ANY NEW FEATURES REQUESTS OR IDEAS … etc SHOULD BE IN A NEW TOPIC
