Cash register & store
Point of sale software
- Touch & barcode interface
- Works offline
- Synced stock & takings
Point of sale (POS) software handles counter sales with a touch interface and barcode scanner, even when the connection drops. In Odoo, the POS is linked to inventory and takings: every sale draws down stock and flows into takings, so store, warehouse and accounting stay aligned.
What point of sale (POS) software is
It's the system you use to sell at the counter: it records items, takes payment, prints the receipt and closes the register. When integrated with the suite, every sale updates stock and takings without end-of-day reconciliation, and the store shares products, prices and customers with eCommerce and sales.
From sale to register close
Each sale updates stock and takings in real time.
- 01
Counter sale
Add items by touch or barcode; discounts, variants and customers are a tap away.
- 02
Payment
Take payment with the methods you've enabled (cash, card, vouchers), with change and bill splitting.
- 03
Stock draw-down
The sale immediately draws down stock, so the warehouse stays accurate even with frequent sales.
- 04
Works offline
If the connection drops, the register keeps working and syncs the data when the network returns.
- 05
Register close
At end of shift you close the register with the takings summary, ready for accounting.

Standalone register vs integrated POS
What changes between a disconnected register and one integrated in the suite.
| Disconnected register | Integrated POS (Odoo) | |
|---|---|---|
| Stock | Updated at end of day | Drawn down on every sale |
| Takings | Reconciled by hand | Ready for accounting |
| Store and online | Separate warehouses | Same stock and customers |
| Connectivity | Stops if the network drops | Keeps working offline and syncs |
| Loyalty & promos | In-store only | Shared with online |
Store, warehouse and books aligned
The POS isn't an island: it shares products, prices and customers with eCommerce and Sales, draws stock from Inventory and brings takings into Accounting. It's the same data linking the counter to the rest of the company, so in-store sales don't live in a separate system to reconcile.
Who it's for
Retail shops
Shops that want fast checkout, accurate stock and, if needed, online sales on the same stock.
Restaurants and bars
Venues with table management and orders sent to kitchen and bar, even with multiple stations.
Chains and multi-store
Networks with several stores that want consistent data and price lists across locations.
Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions about POS software
What's good POS software for a shop?
For shops an integrated POS with inventory and eCommerce is best, so stock is single and takings flow into accounting without reconciliation. Odoo covers touch checkout, barcode, offline and loyalty; Gitogi configures it for your shop or venue.
Does the register work without a connection?
Yes. Odoo's POS keeps selling offline and syncs the data when the network returns, so you don't stop sales because of a line issue.
Does it handle Italian electronic receipts (registratore telematico)?
Italian electronic receipts (corrispettivi telematici) require a certified fiscal recorder (registratore telematico, RT) or fiscal printer: they're handled through the integration between the POS and these devices. During analysis we verify the right hardware and configuration for your case, together with your advisor.
Does it connect to inventory and eCommerce?
Yes. Every sale draws down the same warehouse used by sales and eCommerce, and customers and price lists are shared across channels.
How much does Odoo's POS cost?
Prices and editions are on odoo.com. Gitogi does not resell licences: we handle POS configuration, hardware integration, migration and training. For an estimate, get in touch.
Is it suitable for restaurants too?
Yes. There's a restaurant configuration with table management and orders sent to kitchen and bar; we adapt it to your venue during analysis.
