Scan-to-add
Requires the barcode field to exist on the item master and the scanner input to map cleanly into Fast Billing.
When to use Fast Billing
Use Fast Billing for high-speed counters where operators need scan-first entry, compact cart review, quick payment handling, and thermal receipt output without opening the full invoice editor.
Fast Billing workflow
- Select or confirm the customer.
- Scan the barcode or search by item name/code.
- Adjust quantity or remove a line with the keyboard-first controls.
- Finalize the sale and capture payment mode.
- Print the thermal receipt if configured.
Fast Billing depends on strong
barcode-backed item masters, not just the counter screen layout.
Scanner timing, duplicate
guard, and customer display settings are operational controls that should be tuned in settings.
Label printing and receipt
printing are separate workflows. Verify both before the first production shift.
Configure barcode operations
Label printing
Use item-level and batch label print only after pricing and barcode values are verified.
Duplicate guard
Use scanner duplicate guard and auto-submit timing settings if repeated scans cause accidental duplicates.
Thermal and hardware settings
- Choose 58mm or 80mm receipt width in settings.
- Select the receipt style that matches your counter print expectations.
- Use receipt preview in settings before production use.
- Configure cash drawer trigger, customer display, and scanner timing if your counter hardware supports them.
If a barcode scan is slow or inconsistent, fix the scanner input behavior before blaming the billing screen. Most counter speed issues come from scanner configuration or bad item masters, not invoice logic.
