How to Use the POS Feature in RepairDesk?

How does the POS section work?

The Point of Sale (POS) feature in RepairDesk allows you to easily book repair jobs, sell items, and handle trade-ins or casual purchases from one convenient screen. This documentation will guide you through the various functions and options available in the POS feature.

To access the POS feature, log in to your RepairDesk account and navigate to the main dashboard. Look for the "POS" option and click on it.

1

For unlocking a device, click on Unlock tab. 

2

To add products, click on Products tab. 

3

To add trade-ins, click on Trade In tab.

You can add customer details by clicking the plus sign in front of the customer name. A new popup will appear to add all relevant customer information.

You can also enable SMS or email feature for the specific customer.

Outstanding Balance Alert:

When a user adds or loads a customer in the POS, check if there is any outstanding balance or flagged notes for that customer.

If there is an outstanding balance or flagged notes, it will display an alert popup. If user clicks on the 'Outstanding Balance', the system will redirect the user to the invoice listing page.

Automatic Filters:

  1. Apply filters automatically on the invoice listing page based on available customer details.
  2. If the customer has an email, apply the filter for that email.
  3. If the email is not available, apply the filter based on the phone number.
  4. If neither email nor phone number is available, search invoices based on the customer name.
  5. Apply filters for invoice status to show unpaid and partially paid invoices.

FAQs

How can I charge my customer a different service price without re-entering all asset details?

We've added a ‘Clone’ option in POS and New Ticket UI to help with this. If you're offering multiple services for the same device but with different prices, you can now quickly duplicate the asset info into a new line item. This way, you won’t have to enter the same details again—just clone the asset and select the new service with its price. It’s fast, easy, and helps avoid mistakes.
