# POS Quick Sale

> Ring up fast counter sales in BillBasket with a touch product grid, hold and resume bills during a rush, and check out with cash, card, UPI, or a split payment.

POS Quick Sale is BillBasket's fast checkout screen, built for a busy
counter. Instead of filling in a full invoice form, you tap products from a
grid to build the cart and take payment in a couple of taps. It's the same
sale and the same stock and reports underneath — just a quicker way to ring
one up.

<Note>
  POS Quick Sale is for speed at the counter. When you need the full detail
  of an invoice (a specific customer, per-line discounts, terms), use
  [Creating an invoice](/customer-guide/daily-billing/creating-an-invoice)
  instead — both produce a real invoice.
</Note>

## Understanding the fields

* **Product grid** — tap a product to add it to the running cart; tap again
  to increase quantity. This replaces searching and typing for the items you
  sell most.
* **Cart** — the list of what's being sold, with a live running total. For a
  serial-tracked product, POS still asks you to pick the serial before
  checkout — a sale can't be completed while a serialised line is missing
  its serial number. See [Tracking serial
  numbers](/customer-guide/products-and-services/serial-number-tracking).
* **Hold** — parks the current cart (with an optional note) so you can start
  a fresh sale for the next customer, then come back and resume the held one.
  Useful when a customer steps away to fetch one more item and you don't want
  to hold up the queue.
* **Checkout** — opens the payment screen to take Cash, Card, UPI, or a split
  across methods, then saves the invoice. Payment works exactly like a normal
  bill — see [Taking payment](/customer-guide/daily-billing/taking-payment).

<Tip>
  On Windows, POS has keyboard shortcuts for **Hold** and **Checkout**, so a
  fast operator can run the whole sale without leaving the keyboard. Set them
  under [Printers & hardware settings](/customer-guide/settings/hardware-and-connectivity).

    Searching a product adds it straight to the cart below — the line
    shows its quantity stepper and price, with the Subtotal, Grand Total,
    and **Checkout** button always visible underneath.

## Try it: Sharma Kirana Store

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open POS Quick Sale">
    During the evening rush, Suresh opens **POS Quick Sale** to keep the
    queue moving.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Tap products to build the cart">
    He taps Parle-G, Tata Salt, and Amul Milk from the grid — each tap adds
    the item and the total updates live.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Hold a bill when a customer steps away">
    One customer runs back for a second item, so Suresh taps **Hold** with a
    quick note and serves the next person, then resumes the held bill when
    they return.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check out">
    He taps **Checkout**, takes cash, and the invoice is saved — stock and
    the day's sales update just like any other bill.
  </Step>
