This module hides the expected amounts during POS session closing to allow blind cash control.

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0

Hides the expected cash amounts and payment details in the Point of Sale closing popup, so cashiers can count the drawer blindly. Only users in the new "Can see POS closing amounts" group still see those figures.

When a cashier closes a Point of Sale session, Odoo normally shows the expected totals and the breakdown per payment method before the closing is confirmed. This module hides those figures for users who are not allowed to see them, so the cash count is done blindly.

  • The closing popup no longer displays the total orders block, the payment methods overview, and the related detail buttons for users without the new permission.
  • A new user group, "Can see POS closing amounts", is added under the Usability category. Users in this group keep seeing all the closing amounts as before.
  • The permission is checked when the Point of Sale interface loads, so the popup adapts automatically to the logged-in user.

The module only changes the Point of Sale closing screen; it does not alter accounting entries, session records, or any other Odoo area. No new menus or reports are added. The behaviour is controlled entirely by group membership, which an administrator assigns in the user settings.

terminal Installation and usage

OCA documentation · Odoo 18.0

To use this module and enable blind closing in the POS, follow these steps:

  • Navigate to Settings → Users & Companies → Users
  • Open the user who should be allowed to see the expected closing amounts
  • In the Extra Rights tab, enable the group:
  • Can see POS closing amounts
  • Users with this group will be able to see the expected amounts during the POS session closing.
  • Users without this group will perform a blind closing, meaning:
  • Expected cash amounts are hidden
  • Only counted amounts can be entered

Notes:

  • This allows managers or supervisors to see the expected totals while regular cashiers perform a blind cash count.
  • The feature applies to the POS closing popup when ending a session.
