If the Accounting app is installed, use the Intermediary Account field, if needed, to record transactions for this payment method in a specific receivable account for better traceability. Leave the field empty to use the company’s default receivable account. When a journal is selected, an Outstanding Account can also be set if required.
Tip
Use a dedicated cash journal to record cash payments.
Always set the Journal to Bank when configuring a payment terminal.
One-click payment¶
The one-click payment feature allows you to bypass the payment screen for a faster checkout. To activate this setting, navigate to the POS settings, scroll down to the Payment section, and enable One-click Payment. Then, select one or multiple payment methods in the Payment Methods field.
Once activated and configured, open the POS register and add products to the cart. The previously selected payment methods are displayed as shortcut buttons next to the Payment button. Clicking a payment method validates the order immediately and brings you to the receipt screen.
Important
While cash payments are supported, the one-click payment feature assumes the amount received is exact. If the customer requires change, use the standard Payment button to enter the amount tendered manually.
Note
The feature is unavailable for online, delivery, terminal, or ID-verified payment methods.
