Provision to save invoice in draft mode for Online POS #11298

cphoa28 commented 7 years ago

Is there any further details here? Would be interested here to see if can solve the ff issue:

  1. Retail Pharma Store has 4 Pharma Assistance on the counter and 1 cashier in the back.
  2. Each Pharma Assistant takes medicine order from a customer and prepares what should be an equivalent of Sales Invoice in Draft mode
  3. Pharma Assistance will give the Sales Invoice # to Customer
  4. Customer goes to Cashier and gives the Sales Invoice #
  5. Cashier Pulls up the Sales Invoice and process the payment

So, would like a POS view of the Sales Invoice (cash invoice) for the Pharma Assistants and have ability to SAVE BUT NOT PAY

Cashier will have a POS view to see the unprocess Sales Invoices and pull it up and then complete the Sales Invoice

The current ERPNEXT version already has a feature to take a customer order/request and park it. Would be nice if the parked order can be seen from another terminal and processed (ie. by the cashier) and that would solve the problem nicely.

As an alternative, I suppose instead of a Sales Invoice in Draft, a Sales Order submitted will also suffice. We would just need a POS view of Sales Orders (just like in previous version) where it will create the appropriate Sales Invoice (cash invoice, of course).

Or maybe take the ecommerce front end and use that as the order taking screen for the Phrama Assistnts. Then if there is a POS view for Sales Orders for the cashier to process the payment I suppose that would also work.

Help and comment appreciated. Much thanks!! Willing to pay but depends on cost. :-)
