Steps
- Open Business Locations. In the back office sidebar, open Settings and click Business Locations. The list shows every location with its invoice scheme and layouts.
- Click Add. Click Add to open Add a new business location. To change a store, click Edit on its row instead.
- Enter the name and address. Fill in Name, an optional Location ID, the Address, City, Zip Code, State and Country, and the Mobile, Alternate contact number, Email and Website.
- Set the time zone and day end. Pick the location's Timezone and enter its Day end / closing time. A time after midnight, such as 03:00, counts toward the previous date for the daily report and the accounting day-end.
- Choose who gets the daily report. In Emails to send report, enter the addresses that should receive this location's daily sales email.
- Clone products if this is a new store. To copy another store's products, pick that store in Clone products from.
- Pick the invoice settings. Choose the Invoice scheme, Invoice layout for POS and Invoice layout for sale, and a Default Selling Price Group if this store uses different prices.
- Set featured products and payments. Choose POS screen Featured Products, then under Payment Options tick the payment methods this store accepts on the POS and the Catalogue and pick a Default Account for each.
- Save. Click Save. Use Settings on the row for receipt printing, and the activate or deactivate button to close a location without deleting it.
Plans and extra locations
Standard and Pro each include 1 location. An extra location is added at your plan's price, $30/mo on Standard or $50/mo on Pro. Add the location to your subscription first, then create it here.
Users can be limited to the locations they work at under User Management, so a cashier at one store doesn't see another's sales.
Storefront banners and map position
The form also takes top and middle banner images, which show on the location's online catalogue, and a latitude and longitude you can fill in from the browser's location. These only matter if you use online ordering.
Frequently asked questions
How do I add a second store in SeroPOS?
Add the extra location to your subscription, then open Settings › Business Locations and click Add. Fill in the address, time zone and day-end time, and pick your first store in Clone products from to copy its products. Set the payment methods and invoice layouts, then click Save.
What does Day end / closing time do?
It sets when the location's trading day ends, in the location's own time zone. The daily report email and the accounting day-end use it. A bar that closes at 2 am can set 03:00 so late sales count toward the evening they belong to.
Can I close a location without losing its history?
Yes. Click the deactivate button on the location's row. Its sales, purchases and stock stay in your reports, and you can activate it again later.
