Hello Community,

I am facing an issue while making a pos invoice.
After scanning a barcode, the product is not getting added to cart automatically, i have to press enter key, (it slows down the billing process).

While searching on google i found that there may be a problem with barcode scanner, that barcode scanner transmits an enter key automatically, it can be set up with barcode scanner.
I checked with my barcode scanner its transmitting enter key after barcode.

pos%20enter%20key%20issue

Observe log in above screen, Is this a bug in point of sales or its the default behavior ?

Need help in this topic.

ERPNext: v13.0.0-beta.4 (version-13-beta)
Frappe Framework: v13.0.0-beta.4 (version-13-beta)
Browser : Tried with mozilla and chrome both.

It is working fine.

In Stock Settings > Need to check “show Barcode Field” then go to Stock >> Item >> add barcode for that item. refer attached screen.

@Balaji thanks for reply, but thats not the issue, issue is at the time of creating pos invoice, please refer the gif above, in scan barcode field, if i scan using a barcode scanner, item is not getting added in cart automatically, need to press an extra enter key, even though my scanner is sending enter key in suffix with barcode.

@Balaji when you scan items in the PoS page, do you have to press enter key before the items drop into the cart?

That is the problem

I reported this in version 11 as shown below and it was fixed by @rohit_w

Maybe we should look to him for this resolution again

Found a temporary solution using below custom script POS Invoice

cur_page.page.addEventListener('keydown', function(event) {    
    if(event.key == 'Enter' || event.key == 'Tab') {
        setTimeout(() => { 
        if (cur_pos.$components_wrapper.find(".item-wrapper").length == 1) {
            cur_pos.$components_wrapper.find(".item-wrapper").click();
            }  
        }, 800);        
    }
});

Hi @Laxman_Tandon

This does not appear to be working for me, can you throw more light into this ? What does this script do for you?
