Overview

This guide will show you how to arrange your products and add new items to your sales screen layout directly on your StoreHub POS app. A well-organized layout helps your cashiers find products quickly, speeding up transactions and improving efficiency.


Before You Begin

  • Activated StoreHub POS App: Your StoreHub POS app must be installed and activated on your register.

You can easily move products around on your POS sales screen to group similar items or place frequently sold products in easy-to-reach spots.

Troubleshooting

Issue

Solution

Cannot find a product to add to the layout.

  1. Check BackOffice: Ensure the product has been created and saved in your StoreHub BackOffice. Only products created there can be added to the POS layout.

  2. Sync Data: Make sure your POS app has synced with your BackOffice. You can usually force a sync from the 'Settings' menu in the POS app.

  3. Product Visibility: Check if the product is marked as 'Visible on POS' in your BackOffice product settings.

Changes are not saving.

  1. Tap 'Done': Always remember to tap the 'Done' button after making any changes to the layout.

  2. Internet Connection: Ensure your POS device has a stable internet connection, so changes can sync to the BackOffice.

  3. Restart App: Close and reopen the StoreHub POS app, then try arranging the layout again.


FAQs

1. Can I create new products directly on the POS app?

No, new products must first be created and managed in your StoreHub BackOffice. The POS app is for selling and arranging existing products.

2. What if I accidentally remove a product from the layout?

Removing a product from the layout only removes it from the sales screen, not from your BackOffice. You can always add it back to the layout using the '+' icon.

3. Does changing the layout on one register affect other registers?

By default, product layouts are specific to each individual register. Changes made on one register will not automatically apply to others.
