The TRAX Store Management System cashier counter is engineered for rapid item registration using handheld barcode scanners, touchscreen category filters, or dynamic weight calculations.
1. Rapid Item Registration Methods #
Cashiers can add products to the active bill through three integrated methods:
- Instant Barcode Scanning: Point your handheld scanner at any product barcode. The system captures the code and immediately adds the item with a single beep (thanks to automatic carriage return detection).
- Live Name / SKU Search: Type product letters or partial numbers in the top search bar (
name_or_barcode). - Visual Category Touch Tiles: Tap category filter pills across the top (
All, Beverages, Bakery, Produce, Dairy...) to filter product cards, then tap any product photo to add it directly to the active cart.

2. Handling Items Sold by Weight (Produce & Bulk Goods) #
When an item is configured to sell by weight (e.g., fresh fruit, vegetables, bulk nuts, butchery):
- Tap the product tile on the screen.
- TRAX POS automatically launches the Enter Weight dialog modal.
- Type the measured weight on the keypad (e.g.,
1.45 kg). - The unit measurement badge (
kg, g, pcs) dynamically adapts according to product settings. - Click Add to Cart (or press
Enter). The system calculates:Weight × Price per Unit = Line Item Subtotal.

3. Out-of-Stock Warnings #
If inventory tracking is enabled for a product and available stock is zero, the product card displays a red stock badge and alerts the cashier upon selection to prevent overselling.
