Tasks
The tasks menu shows you any active or pending tasks in your store.
Tasks are not performed on POS. POS is responsible for financial periods though. Generally speaking, all tasks need to be wrapped up before POS can close a financial period. This should be done to avoid tasks that affect inventory from bleeding over into the next period. For this reason, POS can be used to quickly see any pending tasks and their assignees.
Tasks are sorted as:
- Urgent tasks (tasks near their deadline).
- My Tasks (tasks assigned to the user currently logged in on the POS App).
- All tasks.
