Custom buttons in POS Retail


The ROBOTILL Retail Point of Sale Module allows you to add custom touch screen buttons. These buttons can be accessed by pressing the 'More' button in the Retail Module. The buttons can be shortcuts to POS functions like 'Convert a sale to a quote' or shortcuts to products that are frequently used but don't have barcodes (for example a plastic carry bag).


There are 4 types of functions (buttons) that can be added:

  1. Shortcut to a POS Function like 'Open Drawer'.
  2. Shortcut to a Product. 
  3. Shortcut to a Product Category.
  4. External programs can be called with various parameters so that ROBOTILL can interact with other 3rd party software or custom add-on's. 

If a Product Category button is added and pressed in the retail module, a product selection screen for that category will be opened.


The cashier will be able to add multiple items to the sale without needing to scan the items. Normally you would add a category of products that are often purchased but don't have barcodes that can be scanned.
