into a POS session.

Configuration --> Point of sale` and select your PoS interface.
To use a barcode scanner, you must enable the feature in the Inventory app. Go to
:menuselection:`Inventory --> Configuration --> Settings`, in the :guilabel:`Barcode` section, tick
:guilabel:`Barcode Scanner` and save.
