Access the POS settings

To access the general POS settings, go to :menuselection:`Point of Sale --> Configuration -->
Settings`. Then, open the dropdown menu in the :guilabel:`Point of Sale` field and select the POS to
configure.

These settings are available to users with the :doc:`access rights </applications/general/users>`
:guilabel:`Administration` set as :guilabel:`Settings`.
You can also configure some settings from the dashboard by clicking the vertical ellipsis button
(:guilabel:`⋮`) on a POS card. Doing so opens a popup window, from which you can:
- :doc:`Enable multiple employees to log in. <employee_login>`
- :doc:`Connect and set up an IoT sytem. <configuration/pos_iot>`
- :doc:`Connect and set up an ePOS printer. <configuration/epos_ssc>`

PoS product categories
======================
Configuration
-------------
POS product categories allow users to categorize products and get a more structured and clean
POS interface.
To manage PoS categories, go to :menuselection:`Point of Sale --> Configuration --> PoS Product
Categories`. To add a new category, click :guilabel:`Create`. Then, name it in the
:guilabel:`Category Name` field.
To associate a category with a parent category, fill in the :guilabel:`Parent Category` field. A
parent category groups one or more child categories.

Assign PoS product categories
-----------------------------
Go to :menuselection:`Point of Sale --> Products --> Products` and open a product form. Then, go to
the :guilabel:`Point of Sale` tab and fill in the :guilabel:`Category` field under the
:guilabel:`Point of Sale` section with one or multiple PoS categories.

Restrict categories
-------------------
You can limit the categories displayed on your POS interface. To achieve this, go to your :ref:`POS
settings <configuration/settings>` and choose the specific categories to display in the
:guilabel:`Restrict Categories` field within the :guilabel:`Product & PoS categories` section.
