Hi , i purchased this recently and wanted to do everything without having to bother you but unfortunately i have to.

1.i imported all products which are more than 200 and i realised it doesnt import quantity. which means i have to go through each one of them to add quantity. i tried using a query to update all quantity but even thought it is updated in the database, on the POST side , it still shows 0. am i using the right field in the database ?(quantity) ? and ir there anyway to ignore the quantity as it is a restaurant and everything will be in stock? cheers

  1. i do not have a pos printer connected yet but i am using mine for testing. the two buttons print bill and print order seems not to do anything for me. i have gone to the settings, added a new printer and pointin it to //pcname/printername and still not working.

Please hope i get a reply soon. i noticed you send people to your facebook group but unfortunately i do not use facebook.

cheers

    Hello,

    Please don’t hesitate to reach us.

    1. There is no option to import the products with quantity. Set quantity in database won’t work as it’s stored with store. The recommended way to import products and then add purchase to set the initial stock.
    2. Please let me know your setting for printing.

    These are the printing options

    • For web browser, these button should open popup windows to print the order/bill. Please make sure the popup for the url is enabled so that the browser won’t block them.
    • For PHP Server, only for local machine where you have install the Simple POS
    • For PHP Pos Print Server, those buttons will send the request to PPP socket and if not connected, you will get alert.

    Please let me know if you have any question or not clear about any point.

    Thank you

    Hi Thanks for replying so quickly. I appreciate that.

    1. ok so how do I set the initial stock? plus I would like to know if the stock could be removed based on the fact that restaurants do not use stocks .

    2. For web browser, I do not see any pop up blocking . what I see is it trying to open , appears for a second then disappears. You mind explaining the PHP Pos Printer Server setup please?

    • Did you enable popups for site?
    • Does the browser open popup window?
    • What happens when you click the print/order buttons?
    • Please test it on live demo too

    i am having so much issue with the printing. like even when i click on print using edge and internet explorer( as it is the only one working) it alwsy shows the pop up screen instead of printing directly as i have set it to print directly. and i have to change the settings all the time and it is really annoying tbh

    I tested it on chrome & firefox and popup are opening fine. There is no directly printing option it.

    You can add the purchase to set initial stock.
