The parking lot is the list of unconfirmed documents. It allows you to resume the suspended completion of a document at any time. The parking lot feature also makes it possible to process a single document on several workstations. To prevent a case where the same document can be edited on several workstations simultaneously, the original parked document is not edited – Comarch mPOS retrieves the data of the parked document and creates its copy.
Resumed documents are saved in the parking lot automatically (by default every 1 minute) so that you do not lose the effects of your work, for example if the battery of the device with Comarch mPOS application is discharged.
However, to allow resuming documents from the parking lot on another workstation in the case where this is not possible on the workstation from which the documents originate (e.g. when a battery is discharged or a device is irreparably damaged), users can be given the permission Can continue parked locked documents in the Comarch Retail POS operator rights application in Comarch ERP Enterprise system.
The [Park] button is available in multiple places in the application, such as the PO Receipt view.
Parked documents are marked with the parking lot icon displayed below their status.
Saving documents automatically in the parking lot
The mechanism saving documents automatically when processing a delivery receipt is enabled if the device is:
- Offline – a document is saved in the local memory of the device
- Online – a document is saved in the parking lot of the Data Service
If Comarch mPOS application is closed unexpectedly, it is possible to go back to editing the last saved version of the document from the parking lot.
