What Is ERPNext Point of Sale (POS)?
ERPNext POS is a modern, browser-based checkout and retail management interface designed for businesses with physical storefronts or counter sales. It lets you ring up sales quickly, accept multiple payment types, apply discounts, print receipts, and automatically update inventory — all while syncing seamlessly with the rest of ERPNext.
Because it runs in your browser, it works on tablets, desktops, or dedicated POS terminals — and even keeps working when offline.
