The "Quick Create and Add Product" is a significant time-saving feature in the POS system, allowing users to swiftly create new products directly during a sale transaction. With this feature, users have the flexibility to start from scratch or duplicate an existing product, similar to the "Duplicate a Product" functionality available in the back office.
This feature allows users to immediately add the product to the sale upon creation, streamlining the workflow and eliminating the need to switch to the back office or resort to using a generic or miscellaneous product code.
Note: A new profile security feature has been added to determine access to the feature.
After the feature has launched, to allow ‘Create Product/s in POS’ access to a user, Go to Staff > POS Security features > Select Profile > Enable "Create Product/s in POS."
