POS & kitchen — illustrated tour

Illustrated POS guide: counter, staff logins, lock screen, shifts, PIN approvals, dual currency, receipts, barcodes, reports, and kitchen.

LBeirut POS is a fast selling surface on the same catalog as your storefront — dual currency (USD + LBP), barcode scanning, thermal print, daily reports, and a live kitchen board — plus separate staff accounts, counter lock, shifts, and PIN approvals. This guide shows the real screens and why each feature builds trust.

Full counter — the heart of the shift

Three zones on one screen: product catalog with photos, the ticket with quantities, and payment (amount tendered + change). Search or scan, add to cart, choose cash or delivery, complete the sale.

Full POS counter with product grid, cart, and payment panel
Full counter — live catalog + cart + dual-currency payment in one view. This is what your team runs at peak hour.
Counter toolbar with Scan, Sound, Print, Today, and Kitchen
Counter toolbar — operational shortcuts: scan, sound, print, today’s report, kitchen, and settings.
  • Product photos sell faster than text alone — the same storefront images appear on the counter
  • Category chips (appetizers, sandwiches…) cut pick time
  • Today gives a quick Z-report to reconcile the drawer without reprinting every receipt
  • Staff see a Lock button instead of owner Settings — one tap locks the counter

Staff — owner · manager · cashier

From Content → POS staff you create people for the store without giving them the full owner dashboard. Each person gets an independent login code (e.g. @128MF-abdo) shown next to their name.

Owner
Full dashboard + emergency PIN for approvals when the manager is away
Manager
Name + PIN only — signs in with code + PIN and approves price/discount/void
Cashier
Name + password (+ optional lock PIN), assigned to one manager
  1. 01

    Create a manager first

    Content → POS staff → Create manager (name + 4–6 digit PIN + branch if any).

  2. 02

    Create a cashier

    Create cashier: name + password + assigned manager + permissions (shift, drawer, reports…).

  3. 03

    Staff sign-in

    Only on pos.lbeirut.website — separate from the owner dashboard, even in a new tab.

Counter lock & PIN approvals

  • Lock: staff lock the screen; unlock needs a PIN (cashier, assigned manager, or owner)
  • Lock is server-enforced — sales and voids are blocked while locked
  • Price edit or cart discount without permission → assigned manager PIN only (or owner PIN)
  • Void uses the same approval rules
  • Staff cannot approve their own sensitive action

Shifts & daily ops

  • Open a shift with an opening cash float
  • Close a shift with a cash count and reconciliation
  • Hold a ticket and recall it later on the same device
  • Attach a customer (name/phone) to the order
  • Pay cash, card, or split (cash + card) — magstripe swipe stores last 4 digits only
  • Cash-drawer kick via Web Serial when enabled with print
  • Stock shown on product cards when enabled in POS settings

When POS appears

  • Plan that supports POS (usually Pro / Enterprise)
  • POS enabled in settings/activity
  • Sometimes extra conditions by theme or having products
  • Kitchen appears with a suitable ops profile + POS

Exchange rate — one source of truth

Set how many LBP equal one USD. That rate feeds the storefront, invoices, and POS receipts together — no “approx” counter prices that disagree with online.

Store currency setting: 1 USD = ... LBP
Store currency — one FX rate for store + invoice + POS receipt. Consistency = customer trust.

Product grid prices on the counter

Choose how prices appear under each product: USD only, LBP only, or dual. Live preview shows what cashiers will see before you save.

Product grid prices setting with Dual USD + LBP preview
Product grid prices — dual display on the grid so staff and customers read the same number clearly.

Thermal receipt display

Control what prints on the 80mm thermal receipt: line items and totals — LBP only or dual. Ideal when paper needs LBP while the system keeps USD.

Receipt display settings for line items and totals
Receipt display — clear paper for the customer, dual totals for accounting. The FX rate is shown in the helper text.

Checkout & print — finish buttons

Enable Receipt and/or Invoice on the counter. Each button completes the sale and opens print immediately. Turn both off for a single Pay button with no print popup.

Checkout & print settings for thermal receipt and A4 invoice
Checkout & print — 80mm thermal receipt + A4 PDF invoice. The header print icon shortcuts these options.

Sale sounds — a living shop feel

A short tone when an item hits the ticket. Pick from 9 tones (LBeirut, Bell, Cash…). Mute quickly from the bell icon on the counter.

Sounds settings with notification tone grid
Sounds — audio confirmation on every add. A “shop is running” feel speeds the team and removes “did it add?” doubt.

Barcode scanner

When enabled, Enter in POS search scans barcode/SKU and adds the item instantly. The header barcode icon toggles the mode fast.

Barcode scanner setting: Enable scanner Enter to add
Barcode scanner — scan → instant add. Built for retail, grocery, and fast kiosks.

Barcode labels

Defaults for label printing from Products: show store name and/or price. Assign SKU/barcode on each product first.

Barcode labels settings for store name and price on labels
Barcode labels — brand on the shelf + clear price. Linked straight to the Products page.

Sales reports

Daily or monthly summary: order count, dual-currency totals, CSV export, and Print/PDF. Today in the header = quick end-of-day Z-report.

Sales reports screen with filters, CSV export, and PDF print
Sales reports — clear dual-currency numbers + export for accounting. Strong demo asset for partners and investors.

POS on phone & tablet

This is the real phone counter your team uses: product grid with photos, Counter toolbar, then the Current ticket with dual-currency totals and Cash / Delivery / Invoice / Receipt.

Phone POS: product grid, Counter bar, and search
Catalog — search or scan, tap the grid, see qty badges on cards.
Phone POS: Current ticket modal with totals and pay actions
Ticket — qty, delivery, dual Total, then Cash or Delivery and print.

POS on phone — catalog then ticket. Full desktop power in one thumb.

Payment & calculator panels (side close-ups)

On desktop, the left and right rails are focused panels: unit price, cart, amount paid, change, and calculator. Below are compact side-by-side close-ups so you can read each rail without filling the page.

Unit price panel with keypad
Unit price rail — edit price fast + “was” discount.
Checkout panel with delivery
Cart rail — line, qty, delivery fee, Total.

Side panels — unit price and cart/pay (compact for quick review).

Invoice and Receipt buttons with totals
Pay/print — Cash · Delivery · Invoice · Receipt.
Customer Paid, Change, and Calculator
Paid & change — dual-currency calculator built in.

Finish & change — print actions + Customer Paid / Change / Calculator.
