POS Configuration

To configure the Prestatill POS, you need to set the module options from the Back Office:

PrestaShop 8 and 1.7: Modules menu → Module Manager

PrestaShop 1.6: Modules and Services menu

Search for the PrestaTill POS module and click Configure.

In the Prestatill POS tab, you can choose between light mode or dark mode for your POS interface.

In the Your Points of Sale tab, select the store you want to configure.

Activate the point of sale

Simply activate the store for it to appear in the POS.

Note: The POS can only be used if the license has been configured (see tutorial).

Catalog Display

In the POS, you can access the product catalog based on the PrestaShop category tree. By default, Home is the root category (ID 2) used for navigation.

If you prefer a different one, simply enter the ID of the desired category.

Customer Settings

Identify the walk-in customer

This walk-in customer is mandatory; they are the default customer identified in the POS. All transactions made by people without a customer account are grouped under this profile.

Simply click the Create walk-in customer button to generate it automatically.

If it already exists, you can enter its ID manually.

Add favorite customers

To quickly identify certain customers, you can add their IDs (separated by commas) to the POS favorite customers list.

Note: The walk-in customer is already included as a favorite by default, so there is no need to add it.

Assign a customer group to the POS

This is only necessary if you want in-store sales to use different customer groups than online sales.
Otherwise, leave No group selected.

To override the default behavior, you can select a group that will be applied to all customers purchasing in-store (this will not affect how online sales work).

Send orders to customers by email

By enabling this option, the standard PrestaShop order confirmation email is automatically sent to identified customers.

Note: This is not the receipt, which can of course be sent by email after a payment is completed.

Carrier Settings

Assign a carrier to the point of sale

Selecting a carrier is mandatory.
Typically, a dedicated carrier is created for the store.

If you're using a carrier already configured for online sales that only offers free shipping above a certain amount, you can force free shipping in the POS by enabling the option Make shipping free with this carrier (this is done by automatically creating a discount voucher).

If the selected carrier is already free, there is no need to activate this option.

Receipt Settings

Logo on the receipt

It is possible to have a different logo on the receipts for each point of sale.

Custom messages on the receipt

A number of elements are displayed by default on receipts (logo, store address, receipt barcode, sales information).

However, you can add a custom message — with formatting — at the very top and bottom of each receipt.

Payment Settings

Simply check one of the payment methods to have it automatically offered during checkout.

This will also trigger the appearance of an additional entry on the X and Z reports.

Note: If a credit slip is generated following a return, the Credit slip payment method will be automatically selected, even if it wasn't initially chosen.

The Are partial payments allowed? option allows you to complete an order in the POS without paying the full amount — for example, when taking a deposit.

Order settings

Selecting the final status for a Click & Collect order allows you to:

– Enable the Click & Collect button in the POS

– Define the PrestaShop status for an order picked up in-store so it no longer appears among pending orders

For more information, see our dedicated tutorial on Click & Collect and Order Statuses. Click & Collect et aux Etats de commandes.

The Do you want to view online orders in this point of sale? option allows you to display online store orders in the POS. This setting has no impact on the management or display of Click & Collect orders.

The Credit slip validity period is defined in days. The merchant can still override it during checkout if desired. Expired credit notes are simply marked with a grey background.

Access/Permission Settings

You can either keep the seller identification until it is manually changed, or force the system to request identification after each sale (in this case, enable the option).

By default, all available points of sale are accessible in the POS. To restrict access so that a specific employee profile can only access the configured point of sale, simply check the box for the desired profile.

If no boxes are checked, all profiles will have access to this store in the POS.

(Reminder: a SuperAdmin always has full access.)
