Looking for Advice

[kdy294]

I’m currently working on a new project and facing some challenges. I’m developing a desktop point-of-sale (POS) software. When users log in, they are prompted to select their location and terminal, followed by a “cash in” process.

The challenge arises when an employee tenders a sale. I need the system to deduct the inventory from the stock of the specific location selected at login. While each item in the sale is already linked to a product in the catalog, I’m struggling to ensure the inventory update applies only to the selected location.

I was considering using a blank page with a countdown timer to process each item added to the sale, but I’m unsure if this is the best approach. If the countdown timer isn’t ideal, I’d appreciate any suggestions or advice on better ways to handle this functionality. I’m stuck on this part and could really use some guidance to make it work properly.

Hi, if the checkout happens for only one item at a time you can just update the quantity in the collection where the item is stored,

but if you have multiple item checkkout (I assume it’s the case) for now your only option is to use the countdowns to update all the items one by one, unfortunately for the moment Adalo doesn’t have a way to update bulk data
