One Click to Unify Your POS Categories

Mirror your product category tree into Point of Sale in a single click, then govern who sees what per company — without ever losing an existing product link.

The problem

Point of Sale keeps its own category tree, separate from the product categories already curated in Inventory and Sales. Every new product needs manual linking, the two structures drift apart over time, and in multi-company databases every user sees every company's categories cluttering the POS screen.

The solution

A single merge wizard mirrors your product category tree into POS categories, auto-links every product, and lets you resolve conflicts before anything changes. Per-company scoping keeps each cashier looking at only their own company's categories, with color and icon tags for fast visual navigation.

Capabilities

Everything you need to unify categories

Every capability below is implemented in the module.

01

One-Click Merge Wizard

Migrate your entire product category tree into POS categories in a single run, with a live impact preview before you commit.

02

Selective Root Migration

Choose exactly which root product categories to migrate instead of an all-or-nothing sync, keeping irrelevant categories off the POS screen.

03

Conflict Resolution

Decide how products already linked to a different POS category are handled — append, overwrite, or skip — before the merge runs.

04

Auto-Linked Products

Every product in scope is automatically linked to the POS category generated from its product category, eliminating manual per-SKU work.

05

Per-Company Category Scoping

Assign companies to POS and product categories so cashiers and managers only ever see categories that belong to their active company.

06

Company Cascade to Sub-Categories

Assigning a company at a parent category cascades the assignment down its full sub-category tree in one step.

07

Access Warnings

An inline warning alerts you when you are editing a POS category that will not be visible in your current company.

08

Color and Icon Tags

Give every POS category a color and a Font Awesome icon for faster visual navigation on the POS screen.

09

Root-Only Display Toggle

Hide a category's sub-categories from the POS screen per branch, decluttering the register without losing the underlying structure.

Workflow

How it works

3

See exactly how many POS categories were created, how many products were linked, and how conflicts were resolved.

Sell with Confidence

Cashiers see color- and icon-coded categories scoped to their company on the POS screen, ready to use.

Questions

Frequently asked

No sales fog. If your question isn't here, email us and we'll answer it the same way.

No. The wizard only creates new POS categories from your product categories or reuses ones that already match; conflict handling for already-linked products defaults to append, so existing links are never destroyed unless you explicitly choose overwrite.
