Introduction

The POS Longpolling module enables real-time communication between the backend and point-of-sale (POS) interfaces in Odoo. Without requiring manual session reloads, updates such as product changes, pricing revisions, and customer information are immediately pushed to all active POS sessions. This delivers a seamless and accurate selling experience, ensuring that POS staff always work with the latest data.

Key Features

  • Instantly broadcast updates across all active POS sessions from the backend

  • Allow backend code to push selective messages to specific POS terminals or user groups

  • Client-side subscription mechanism that listens for real-time updates via longpolling channels

  • Minimal latency due to continuous backend–POS communication without manual refresh

  • Fully integrated with Odoo’s real-time bus mechanism for efficient push notifications

Benefits

  • Ensures POS users always work with current product, pricing, and customer information

  • Enhances operational agility by reflecting backend changes immediately at the point of sale
