Odoo POS software for stores, retail and restaurants

Run your Point of Sale with Odoo

Ringing up sales is not enough. Good POS software also has to update inventory in real time, record the right payments, track customers and make your margins reliable. With Odoo Point of Sale, your register is directly connected to your company's inventory, purchasing, customer loyalty and accounting flows.

Managing your point of sale with Odoo
Field diagnosis

Why bad POS software costs you money

The real problem is not taking payments. It is the lack of sync between the register, inventory, prices, returns and accounting.

Wrong stock levels and invisible stockouts

When the register does not deduct inventory correctly, theoretical stock becomes wrong. Replenishment goes out too late, you lose sales and your margin becomes hard to manage.

Manual price and item management

Per-kilo prices keyed in by hand, poorly handled container deposits, gift baskets that do not deduct the right components: these workarounds at the register create errors everywhere.

Accounting and payments not properly linked

When payment journals or returns are poorly configured, accounting has to reprocess the flows by hand. Teams then end up working around the register with Excel files.

Odoo out of the box

Use cases

Odoo Point of Sale for retail, food stores and restaurants

Retail, food, bulk and specialty stores need real management of items, prices and stock movements.

Sale by weight, per-kilo pricing and labels

Odoo can be connected to scales and label printing for products sold by weight. This avoids manual entry and price display errors at the register.

Gift baskets, boxes and kits

A gift basket or kit sold at the register can automatically deduct the right components through Odoo bills of materials. Inventory stays accurate, even on complex sales.

Container deposits and returns

Returns of bottles, crates or containers can be handled with proper flows in Odoo, without hacking negative discount lines that distort your margin and accounting analysis.

Connecting the Odoo register to purchasing and replenishment

A customer can order an item in store that is not immediately available and pay a deposit. Odoo then turns this sale into a deferred shipping flow and can create a replenishment need on the purchasing side. The register is no longer isolated: it plays a direct role in managing inventory and orders.

🔗 The secret to stress-free management: By connecting your point of sale to the rest of the ERP, your journal entries are generated automatically at every closing. No more days spent checking receipts one by one. Find out how to optimize your accounting with Odoo.
