POS Table Synchronization Issue Between Devices in Odoo v17 CE

Question

Hello,
I'm using Odoo 17 Community Edition to manage a restaurant. In our workflow, waiters take orders from their phones or tablets, and the cashier finalizes the payments from another device.
The problem is that when a waiter places an order on a table from one device, that table still appears empty on the cashier's device. The cashier has to manually select and refresh the table before being able to see and process the order, which causes delays.
Is there a way to enable real-time synchroniza

Hi,

Please refer to the link:
1. https://apps.odoo.com/apps/modules/16.0/pos_data_auto_sync [1]
This Module will help you to Create Products Automatically in Multiple Running Sessions Without Reloading the Sessions … Applicable in the Case of Multiple Sessions.
2. https://apps.odoo.com/apps/modules/16.0/pos_restaurant_multi_company [2]
“PoS Restaurant – Multi Company” by OCA, but that only adds multi-company support, not necessarily real-time session/table sync

Hope it helps.

**Solution Workarounds** Option 1: *Polling via JavaScript (Custom Workaround)* Develop a custom module to manually sync the pos_session state using periodic API calls:
setInterval(() => {
// Custom call to backend to fetch updated table statuses
}, 5000);

Option 2: *Use Third-Party Modules* Some third-party POS modules on GitHub or Odoo apps can add partial sync features. Look for ones supporting:

Table syncing

Order status refresh

Multi-terminal usage in CE
Option 3: *Upgrade to Odoo Enter
