WHEN THE INTERNET TAKES A BREAK
Set up offline POS before you need it. Make bills using saved products, keep sales on your device, and send them to your business records when you reconnect.
For businesses in Pakistan. Check features and limits on your plan.
Check the queue after reconnecting.
A saved sale is not yet a synced sale.
A customer is ready to pay, but the internet has stopped working. You should not have to start writing the same bill again on paper. invo.pk’s offline billing uses the product information already saved on your device, so a prepared counter can keep recording sales during a connection problem.
HOW IT WORKS
Confirm offline POS is available and enabled for your business; ask the team if it is not. Open POS for the branch you use, let its product information download, and check that the offline catalogue is ready. Do this on each device that needs to keep billing.
Use the saved catalogue to make a bill. The sale stays in that device’s pending-sales list. An offline receipt uses a temporary reference rather than pretending that the server has already issued the final invoice number.
Once the connection returns, the app attempts to send saved sales to the server. Check the pending-sales list: a completed sync and a failed sale are not the same thing. If a record needs attention, review its message before retrying or asking for help.
THE EVERYDAY DETAILS
Work with products already available in the local catalogue, instead of learning a second billing tool. Saved prices and settings help build the bill, but changes made elsewhere will not appear until the device receives fresh information.
A pending record tells you that the sale is saved locally, not yet confirmed in your online accounts. After successful sync, it can be matched to its final invoice. This makes it easier to explain an offline receipt and check that nothing was missed.
Each counter keeps its own unsynced sales. Another phone or computer does not automatically hold a copy of that queue. Keep the original device available and allow its sales to finish syncing before changing browsers or clearing stored data.
A FAMILIAR SITUATION
Imagine three customers pay while your connection is down. The prepared device records three pending sales. When you reconnect, check all three statuses instead of entering those bills a second time. The illustration shows the sequence, not a promise that every sync will succeed immediately.
BEFORE YOU START
YOUR QUESTIONS
No. Sign in, confirm offline POS is enabled for your business and prepare the correct branch’s catalogue while connected. A device that has never downloaded the required information is not ready for offline billing.
Unsynced sales are stored on the device and browser that recorded them. Keep that device available until they sync successfully. Do not clear browser storage or assume a second device has a backup of the queue.
It uses a temporary offline reference. The server issues the final invoice after successfully accepting the sale. Check the pending-sales list to confirm the outcome after reconnecting.
No. The device works from saved information and cannot see every change made at other counters while disconnected. Reconnect to refresh information and review stock differences after sales sync.
