A stable internet connection is important when using mobile apps for daily business operations. However, there may be times when the internet connection is slow, unstable, or unavailable, making it difficult for users to access the app and perform their tasks.
With the Offline Mode feature, users can continue performing supported activities in the mobile app even without an active internet connection. Once the connection is restored, the data can be synchronized with the system.
I. Sync Products to Local Storage
Step 1. Go to Sell and click the Online menu.
Step 2. Click Product Tab and click Sync now
The products are now synced to local storage and ready to be used for offline transactions.
Note: Product sync needs to be performed whenever there are changes to the product data, such as price updates, new products, and other changes.
II. Switch to Offline Mode
Step 1. Click the Online menu and switch from Online to Offline mode
Note: The example above is only a simulation of manually switching to Offline Mode. If your internet connection is lost or unavailable, the app will automatically switch to Offline Mode.
