Here's a setup that was implemented for managing mobile points of sale, such as a sales truck that not only sells directly to customers.

In this configuration, the goal was to assign the truck its own dedicated stock location, separate from the main warehouse, to enable proper tracking of product movements. Here's how to achieve it:

1. Create a New Internal Stock Location

Navigate to: Inventory > Configuration > Locations

Create a new location:

  • Location Name: WH/Stock/Reparto
  • Location Type: Internal Location
  • Parent Location: WH/Stock

This location will represent the inventory inside the truck.

2. Create a New Operation Type

Go to: Inventory > Configuration > Operation Types

Create a new Operation Type:

  • Name: Transfer Reparto
  • Type: Delivery
  • Source Location: WH/Stock/Reparto
  • Destination Location: Customers

This will handle deliveries/sales from the truck to customers.

3. Stock the Truck

Create an Internal Transfer to move products from your main warehouse to the truck:

  • Source: WH/Stock
  • Destination: WH/Stock/Reparto
  • Add products and validate the transfer

This ensures that the truck (mobile POS) is stocked with products before heading out.

4. Create a New POS (Point of Sale)

Go to: Point of Sale > Configuration > Point of Sale

Create a new POS session with:

  • Operation Type: Transfer Reparto (created earlier)

This ensures the POS session will draw stock from the truck location (WH/Stock/Reparto), and sales will be registered as deliveries to customers.

5. Run a POS Session

Start a session with the new POS.

Make a sale and process the payment as usual.

6. Verify Stock Moves

Check the stock moves under Inventory > Reporting > Stock Moves or directly from the sale order or POS order. You should see:

  • Source: WH/Stock/Reparto
  • Destination: Customers

Everything is tracked properly, and the inventory levels of the truck are updated accordingly.


This setup allows you to:

  • Treat a mobile POS (like a truck) as a stocked location
  • Track and control inventory specific to that mobile unit
  • Sell to customers from that location using POS
  • Easily replenish the truck via internal transfers
