How to Use the Counter Sales Tool in 10X ERP
The Counter Sales tool in 10X ERP allows users to quickly create and process sales orders for walk-in or account customers directly at the counter. Unlike a standard sales order, there is no separate create-shipment step—in-stock items ship automatically as soon as the order is published, and the system immediately prompts for payment and printed or emailed documentation based on the customer's preference.
- Set Up Counter Stations under Admin > Devices > Stations to represent registers, set default printers, and make end-of-day reconciliation easier.
- (Optional) Set Up a Signature Station on a tablet or touch device via Tools > Signature Station to capture customer signatures at the counter.
- Navigate to Tools > Counter Sales to access the dashboard and view all open or closed counter sale orders.
- Select Your Station to filter the list and default new orders to that register.
- Click the Plus (+) Icon to start a new counter sale order.
- Select or Search for the Customer Account (walk-in/cash or any existing account).
- PO Number Defaults to “Counter” but can be edited.
- Confirm Header Info—populated from customer defaults and still editable.
- Location Is Locked since the customer is picking up in person.
- Choose a Shipping Method—only counter-sale-flagged methods are shown.
- Add Items to the Order, with tax/non-tax based on the customer's settings.
- Include Add-Ons, Attachments, or Notes as needed.
- Click the Check Mark to Publish—in-stock items ship automatically and the payment prompt appears.
- Choose the Payment Method (Terms, Cash, Check, or Credit Card; Terms only if the account supports it).
- Capture the Customer Signature via the signature station or on-screen.
- Print or Email the Invoice, with an optional Stripe receipt for credit card payments made through Stripe.
- Order Closes Automatically when paid; terms orders stay open with a draft invoice in the billing Send Invoices section.
- Reconcile Registers via Counter Station Reconciliation to confirm cash, check, and credit card totals per station.
- Manual Returns are also available from the Counter Sales area (covered in a separate video).
