Odoo Module ยท POS Auto Lock

POS Auto Lock

POS Auto Lock enhances the standard Odoo Point of Sale by replacing the default idle timeout behavior with fully configurable Auto Lock, Saver Screen, and Login Screen timings.
This module allows businesses to automatically lock the POS after a configurable period of inactivity, helping protect sales sessions from unauthorized access while improving security in busy retail environments. Instead of relying on Odoo's fixed timeout values, administrators can define custom inactivity durations directly from the POS configuration.

โœ” Enable POS Auto Lock

Easily enable or disable automatic POS locking from the Point of Sale configuration without any custom coding.

โœ” Custom Inactivity Timeout

Configure the exact number of seconds the POS can remain idle before automatically displaying the Saver Screen, giving you complete control over inactivity behavior.
