Turn any POS product into a time-billed service
Start a timer at the counter, watch the charge run live, and bill exactly what a table, room, console, or rental earns — with pause/resume, supervisor overrides, and manager-grade reporting built in.
The problem
Standard Point of Sale bills a fixed price the moment a product is sold. When the real price depends on how long a customer occupies a table, room, console, or rented item, cashiers are stuck reading a clock and typing a custom price by hand — slow, disputable at the register, and impossible to audit afterward.
The solution
Cerevantix POS Time-Based Products adds a live timer straight to the POS orderline. Start, pause, resume, and stop billing with one tap; the exact charge is calculated from the real elapsed time with configurable rounding, a minimum charge, and a full audit trail on every session.
Everything a time-billed business needs
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
One-Tap Timer Start/Stop
Begin and end a time charge in a single action, with a clearly visible running-timer state right on the order screen.
Live Elapsed-Time Billing
Per-minute or per-hour pricing with configurable rounding and a minimum charge, calculated automatically from actual elapsed time — no manual math, no price override.
Pause & Resume
Handle real-world interruptions — a customer steps away, a rental is temporarily returned — without billing time that was not actually used.
Supervisor Override
Authorized staff can correct an obviously wrong elapsed time at the register, with every override recorded on the session's audit trail.
Bookable Resources & Status Board
A generic resource model — tables, rooms, desks, consoles, equipment — with a live occupancy board and double-booking protection.
Onboarding Scenario Templates
Ready-made templates for hourly, daily, and weekly rental or table service create a correctly configured product with one click.
Batch Product Configuration
Enable and configure time billing across many products at once instead of one-by-one, cutting setup time for shops with large catalogs.
Manager Time-Analysis Reporting
A dedicated report breaks down revenue, resource/product utilization, and average duration, so owners know which resources earn at which hours.
Itemized Receipt & Audit Trail
Every timed sale prints its start time, stop time, and duration on the receipt, and is logged to a session record for reconciliation.
How it works
Configure billing rules
Set per-minute or per-hour pricing, rounding, and a minimum charge on any product, or apply a ready-made scenario template for instant setup.
Start the timer at the counter
The cashier taps Start Timer on the POS orderline; a live badge shows elapsed time and the running charge as it accrues.
Pause, resume, or override
Handle interruptions with pause/resume, or let a supervisor correct the elapsed time with a recorded reason.
Stop and bill automatically
The POS calculates the exact charge from the actual elapsed time, prints it on the receipt, and logs it to a session record.
