User Guide for Odoo POS Session Restriction

INTRODUCTION

Odoo POS Session Restriction to enhance data safety and security!

Ensuring customer data safety and security is a must for any business. It allows customers to purchase and complete the transaction, especially in POS. Also, these safety precautions restrict unauthorized users from accessing the POS system.

Therefore, we created Odoo POS Session Restriction. It authorizes the admin to apply multiple restrictions on POS users. Moreover, the admin can limit the POS users from starting another POS session (When they are already using another), opening a POS session that a user is already using, and numerous others. Also, you can choose the POS session that a user can view and operate.
