Create and manage Jovvie Point of Sale stations

Create, open, and manage Jovvie Point of Sale stations in either Standalone or WooCommerce. A station is one register in Point of Sale. Most Point of Sale settings are saved for each station, so each station can have its own products, taxes, currency, users, and payment methods.

Before you start

• You need to be an administrator or shop manager.

Standalone

Point of Sale is already in your dashboard, under POS.

WooCommerce

Install and connect Point of Sale first. See Install and connect Jovvie Point of Sale for WooCommerce.

The two stations you start with

Point of Sale creates two stations for you.

• Primary Station: the station you use for in-person sales. It is the default station.
• Online Storefront Station: stands in for your online store. It uses your store address, tax settings, and stock quantities, so those fields show a link to your store settings instead.

You cannot delete either of these stations.

See your stations

1. In your dashboard, go to POS > Stations.

The list shows each station’s Title, Home URL, and Actions.

Add a station

1. Go to POS > Stations.
2. Click Add New Station at the top of the page.
3. Enter a name for the station in the title field.
4. Choose your settings on the General, Products, Display, Cart, Tax, Users, and Gateway tabs. The Stripe tab is also available after Stripe is connected.
5. Click Save.

You see Station Created.

Find a station’s address

The Home URL column shows the web address staff use to open that station. To copy it, click the copy icon next to the address.

If the column shows a dash, the address is not available yet. See Connection and plan messages.

Open the register

1. Go to POS > Stations.
2. Click View POS on the station row.

The register opens in a new browser tab. View POS only appears for users who are allowed to use that station. On a WooCommerce store, it is also not available until your WordPress site is connected to Jovvie. See Install and connect Jovvie Point of Sale for WooCommerce.

Change a station’s settings

1. Go to POS > Stations.
2. Click Edit Station on the station row.
3. Change the settings you need.

Delete a station

Caution

Deleting a station cannot be undone. Orders placed at that station will no longer open in the register.

1. Go to POS > Stations.
2. Click Edit Station on the station you want to remove.
3. On the General tab, scroll to the bottom and click Delete Permanently.
4. Confirm the warning.

Deleting a station also removes the Stripe card reader location that Jovvie created for it. Set up your readers again on another station if you still need them. See Set up card readers for a station.

Delete Permanently does not appear for Primary Station or Online Storefront Station.
