See every sale on the other tills

Sales, voids and returns travel to the other tills, so each till shows the figures you saw on yours.

4 things it does

A sale rung up on one till shows on the other paired till

Professional only

If I sell on one till, does the sale show on my other till? A sale made on one paired till travels to the other paired till.

Without it

The owner wants the day's takings on the back-office computer. Without the sale travelling, someone has to carry the figures across by hand from the front counter.

With it

The sale travels to the other paired till by itself. The figures there include it, and nobody has to carry a figure across.

Once two tills are paired and the shop network is turned on, a sale made on one is sent to the other. You do not press anything. A sale arrives complete, so the other till does not hold half of one.

Other ways people ask this
  • sales from one till show on another till
  • share sales between two pos computers
  • pos sale on one computer appears on the other

After a sale, the other tills hear about it sooner

Professional only

How quickly does a sale made on one till show on another till? After a sale, the till nudges the other tills so they pick it up sooner, instead of waiting for their next scheduled sync.

Without it

A sale at the front counter reaches the back-office computer only at its next regular check. Until then the owner looks at figures that do not yet include it.

With it

After each sale, the till sends the other tills a short message, so they collect the sale sooner than their next regular check.

After a sale is saved, the till sends a short message to the other paired tills. A till that receives it collects the new sale soon after, rather than waiting for its next regular check. If a message does not arrive, the sale still arrives at the next regular check.

Other ways people ask this
  • how soon a sale shows on another computer
  • pos tills tell each other after a sale
  • sales appear on the other computer sooner

A void or a return on one till shows on your other computers

Professional only

Does a void or a return made on one till show on my other computers? A sale void, a return or a customer payment made on one till is sent to the shop's other computers, with the stock it moved.

Without it

Someone voids a sale or takes goods back at the front till. The computer in the back office still shows the old figure, so the day's figures are out of step.

With it

The void or return is sent to your other computers, with the stock it moved. Each computer then shows what the till showed.

Each void, return and customer payment is kept as one record, made on the till that took it. That record goes to your other computers with everything it changed: the stock it moved, the customer's account and the money entries. The other computers then show the same figures as the till.

Other ways people ask this
  • returns show on my other computers at the shop
  • void a sale on one till and see it on another
  • stock goes back on the shelf on my other computers

Paired tills sync by themselves, and you can also start one

Professional only

Do my tills sync automatically, or do I have to press a button? Paired tills sync automatically when connectivity is available. The sync now action starts a sync on demand.

Without it

A till that waits for someone to press a button falls behind the others. Someone has to remember, and the figures stay out of step until they do.

With it

Paired tills sync by themselves when the network connection is available. When you want one now, the sync now action starts it.

When two tills are paired and the network connection is available, they sync on their own. You do not have to start it. If you want the other tills to catch up now, use the sync now action, which starts a sync when you press it. Syncing needs the shop network to be turned on first.

Other ways people ask this
  • do paired pos tills sync automatically
  • sync data between two computers without a button
  • sync now button for pos on the shop network
