Which business units your staff can sell is set on each Checkout page. For a POS, open the POS app's Checkout page; for the Console's New Order page, open the Console's Checkout page. In the Catalog section, turn units on or off under Business units shown in POS, drag them into the order staff should see, and click Publish. Keep at least one unit on.

Before you start

The business units must exist and have something to sell. See Creating, Editing and Archiving a Business Unit and Choosing What You Sell and Your Prices.

What this list does

When a page sells more than one business unit, staff see a business unit switcher above the item list. They pick Laundry for a bag of clothes and Bag Repair for a handbag. The list decides:

  • which units appear in the switcher on that page;
  • the order they appear in. The first one is selected when staff start a new order.

Each POS app has its own list, so a shop that only does laundry can show Laundry alone. The Console's New Order page has its own list too.

If you've never changed a list, every active business unit shows. Once you change it, a business unit you add later starts switched off on that list. Turn it on before staff need it.

Archived business units never show. See Creating, Editing and Archiving a Business Unit.

Choose the units for the Console's New Order page

  1. Go to ⚙️ Settings > EasyBiz Console.
  2. Under Pages, click Checkout.
  3. In the Catalog section, find Business units shown in POS. On this page, the list sets what the Console's New Order page shows.

Online bookings

Customers book on your Online Store and Mobile App, which have their own list: the switch next to each business unit on the store editor's Checkout page. See Choosing What Customers Fill In When Booking Online.

Example: 2 shops, 2 business units

CleanFast Laundry runs Laundry at both shops, but Bag Repair only at its Tampines shop.

  • Tampines POS: Laundry and Bag Repair on, Laundry first.
  • Jurong POS: Laundry on, Bag Repair off. Staff there see no switcher, only the laundry items.
  • Console Checkout: Laundry and Bag Repair on, so the office can take phone orders for both.

FAQs

I added a new business unit. Why isn't it on the POS?

If the list was changed before, a new unit starts switched off. Turn it on under Business units shown in POS and publish. Also check that the unit has a catalog. Until it does, the POS shows "This business unit has no catalog."

Why can't I turn off the last unit?

A Checkout page needs at least one business unit, so the last one stays on.

Does turning a unit off here archive it?

No. It only hides the unit on that page. Other POS apps, the Console and your Online Store keep their own lists. To stop selling a unit everywhere, archive it.

Do orders already taken change?

No. The list only decides what staff can choose for new orders.
