The Sales Screen

When you have logged in to AirPOS you will see similar to the following sales screen.

While on the main sales screen, you will see all your categories / sub categories and items to the left and your current transaction to the right.

To make a very simple sale, you can either select the items for the sale from the categories on the left hand side, scan the items barcode if you have applied a barcode to your item in the backoffice or add a product by searching for it. The item should then appear on the right hand side as shown below;

Once you have finished adding items to the sale, select the ‘Tender’ button, and the following window will appear;

You can then select the method of payment - Cash, AirPOS Pay, Card (if using a separate card reader)., iZettle or SumUp (if using an integrated payment method) or any of the other tender types which can be shown or hidden in your Payment Settings.

The amount you wish to tender will also be shown here.

If you use and have selected "AirPOS Pay" as your tender type for a sale the tender amount you have entered will be sent directly to your card reader as long as it's connected. This will either be a WisePOS E WIFI reader or WisePad 3 Bluetooth reader.
