POS: Adding Items to the Shopping Cart

How to Add Items to the POS Shopping Cart

Written by Ashley Owens

INTRODUCTION

Feature Summary: Access the Point of Sale (POS) page to manage sales transactions.

Use Cases: System users can display product details, add items to a shopping cart, and process customer payments directly at checkout.


SETUP REQUIREMENTS

Go to the side menu and click POINT OF SALE > LAUNCH POS.


OVERVIEW

The POS page includes the following sections:

  • Categories – Item Categories, displayed on the left

  • Items – shown in the center, with a search bar for quick lookup

  • Shopping Cart & UPC Search – located on the right

If an item does not have an image, the POS page displays the product's Short Name with the default dark blue background and white text. System users can customize these colors.

Click the Back to Dashboard link to go back to the admin page.


Selecting Products

Click a product image (or card) to open a popup with the item description. To purchase, select a quantity and click Add to Cart. If the product has variants, use the drop-down menu to choose the desired option.


Reviewing the Cart

Confirm the information in the cart. Click Checkout to open the payment processing page.

Use the blue Discount button to discount the amount by a default percentage, a manually entered percentage, or enter an override amount. Click here to learn about the Discount link.


Processing a Payment

The next page shows the products, tax (if applicable), and the total amount owed.

  1. Click the Member field and type at least three letters to search for a name. Once selected, the member’s current club balance will appear under Amount Due, along with any available Account Credit. Linking POS sales to a member’s account is optional.

  2. Select a Payment Method and confirm the Payment Amount.

  3. Click Process Sale and then Yes in the confirmation popup.

  4. Click OK in the Success popup window. The POS page displays.

  5. When a POS sale is linked to a member, they will automatically receive an email receipt once the transaction is completed.


Emailed Receipts

If a member has an email on file, a receipt is automatically sent once the payment is processed. If the member doesn't have an email on file but is part of a family membership, the email will be sent to the family's primary email address.

The Email field in the Receipt Option pop-up can be used to enter an address if no email is on file, or to send the receipt to an alternate email address.

When a cart contains multiple items, the receipt lists each item individually, followed by the total.


Example: Purchasing Multiple Items

The following example shows how a cart with multiple items posts as individual fee lines. This applies to transactions made on or after [DATE TBD] — POS sales processed before that date will still post as a single lump-sum fee.

  1. From the POS page, add multiple items to the shopping cart. In this example, a Women's Racerback Tank Top ($20.00) and a Trucker Hat ($22.00) are added.

  2. Click Checkout to review the items, subtotal, tax, and total. Optionally select a Member, then choose a Payment Method and confirm the Payment Amount.

  3. Once the sale is processed, the receipt lists each item individually, followed by the subtotal, tax, and total.

  4. On the Transactions List report, the payment posts as one line, and each item posts as its own linked fee line using the item's description instead of a single Point of Sale line. The Linked Transactions column shows the transaction IDs tying each fee line back to the original payment, making it easy to trace which items belong to which sale.


USER PERSPECTIVE

Members can see POS transactions on the member portal. The member should click their account name and select Billing > Transactions.

On the next page, the POS transaction is listed under the default Paid section. CourtReserve displays the transaction, including the date, amount, and category (i.e., Point of Sale) type. If the original cart contained multiple items, each item is listed as its own fee line with the item's description.

Reminder: When a POS sale is linked to a member with an email on file, they will automatically receive an email receipt once the transaction is completed.


ADMIN PERSPECTIVE

Admins can view POS transactions within a member's account by navigating to Billing > Transactions > Paid Fees or All Transactions. If a POS sale included multiple items, each item is listed as its own fee line. This allows admins to refund a specific item, rather than refunding the full transaction total. To refund an item, locate its fee line on the Transactions List report or within the member's transaction details, then process the refund from that line.
