Hi,
In Odoo POS, creating an invoice for every order isn't necessary for stock valuation updates. The stock valuation is primarily updated by the stock moves generated when a POS order is confirmed. To handle situations without a specific customer, create a default customer (e.g., "POS Customer") and configure your POS to use this default customer when no customer is selected.
This approach enables invoicing if needed, ensures accurate stock valuation through correct stock moves, and simplifies the POS workflow. Verify that your accounting settings, especially the inventory valuation method, are properly configured for accurate COGS calculations and stock valuation.
Hope it helps

You do NOT need to create an invoice for every POS order for stock valuation to work in Odoo. POS orders automatically create stock moves when the order is validated (paid).
Regretfully, without invoices, it cannot manage inventory or the cost of products sold.
Please update your source code to the latest build, there was an earlier issue with COGS in Point of Sale that was resolved early in October.
Please work with Support - odoo.com/help - so they can check you have the correct configuration needed on your Product Categories (expense account) so that COGS is posted when closing your session in Point of Sale.
