With the release of Odoo 18 POS Module, businesses management software in the retail and hospitality sectors gain access to a host of powerful updates aimed at improving efficiency, accuracy, and user experience. Whether you're operating a restaurant, retail store, or temporary setup like a pop-up shop, the new features offer enhanced inventory management, UI/UX improvements, advanced integrations, and seamless sales operations.

Let’s explore the major functional enhancements in Odoo 18’s Point of Sale system and how they compare to earlier versions.


🧾 1. Edit Payments Functionality

The Edit Payments option now allows cashiers or managers to update payment information even after a transaction is completed. Accessible via the PoS interface, this feature corrects errors post-payment and adjusts the receipt accordingly.

Once a payment is validated (e.g., Cash or Card), users can click "Edit Payment", modify details (such as changing payment method from Cash to Customer Account), and instantly reflect the update in the order and receipts.


📊 2. Closing Entry by Product

With the Closing Entry by Product enabled, Odoo generates a detailed sales line breakdown in the session’s closing report, giving better insight into inventory and product performance.


💲 3. Price Control in POS

Only authorized managers can alter product prices during a sales session when Price Control is active. This ensures pricing integrity during real-time sales.


🏷️ 4. Pricer Integration for ESL

The Pricer settings allow integration with electronic shelf labels (ESLs), ensuring real-time updates for product names, pricing, and stock levels. This reduces manual pricing errors and keeps in-store info accurate.


🧾 5. Bills & Receipts Customization

Through Bills & Receipts settings, businesses can:

  • Customize headers and footers

  • Automatically print receipts

  • Send receipts via SMS or WhatsApp

  • Print basic receipts (no prices)

  • Enable Self-Service Invoicing using QR codes for clients to request invoices


🍔 6. Food Delivery Connector

With UrbanPiper Integration, Odoo 18 POS seamlessly connects with food delivery platforms like Zomato, Swiggy, and UberEats. Orders, inventory, and payments sync in real-time, reducing manual input and errors.


💳 7. Multi-Terminal Payment Integration

Odoo 18 POS now supports a range of payment terminals, including:

  • Adyen

  • Razorpay

  • Stripe

  • Paytm

  • Mercado Pago

  • Viva Wallet

  • SIX

These integrations streamline checkout and enhance payment flexibility.


📈 8. PoS Management & Employee Access

POS sessions are now easier to manage via a streamlined dashboard. Roles can be assigned as Basic (limited) or Advanced (managerial). Employees log in securely using PIN codes, and sessions can be initiated with custom printer and IoT Box settings.


✍️ 9. Note Models

Create reusable Note Models to attach special instructions or remarks to orders or individual items—especially useful for restaurants or personalized retail services.


🛍️ 10. POS Product Creation Interface

You can now create products directly from the POS terminal by clicking "Create Product". Fill out basic product details, enable inventory tracking, assign it to POS categories, and upload images—all without switching to the backend.


🛒 11. POS Product Categories

Classify products easily using the POS Product Category configuration. View them in Kanban, filter, group, and create new categories by assigning names, parent categories, time slots, and color tags.


12. UrbanPiper Store Timings

Manage delivery platform availability by setting UrbanPiper Store Timings. Configure open/close times by day to ensure your store is only visible to customers during operating hours.


📱 13. Install POS as PWA

Install the POS interface as a Progressive Web App (PWA) on your device for offline access, faster performance, and a native app-like experience.


🧾 14. Floor Plan Management for Restaurants

Odoo 18 introduces an interactive restaurant floor plan editor:

  • Add/edit/delete tables

  • Change colors and shapes

  • Clone or rename tables

  • Save layouts for different sessions

Click "Edit Plan" to modify seating arrangements, then proceed to booking, ordering, and payment as needed.


📷 15. Enhanced Restaurant POS Features

From booking tables to assigning orders, Odoo 18’s restaurant POS view simplifies service. View real-time table availability, book tables, switch between floor views, and customize per session.


Conclusion

The Odoo 18 POS Module is a significant leap forward, especially for retail and hospitality businesses. With smart tools like in-terminal product creation, dynamic floor plan editing, real-time ESL integration, and seamless delivery platform sync, Odoo 18 delivers a comprehensive, modern, and efficient point-of-sale experience.
