  • Zero UI changes: fully transparent for cashiers.
Module cover / hero

Why this module?

In many POS setups, each invoice automatically receives a PDF attachment at posting time. While convenient in some contexts, this creates unnecessary storage growth and slows down backups, especially in high-volume retail environments.

Solution: this module detects invoices originating from POS orders and prevents the persistent PDF attachment. Users can still print or download the invoice report whenever needed.

Key Features

  • Automatically prevents the PDF attachment on POS-generated invoices.
  • No change to POS UI or cashier workflow.
  • Does not alter accounting data or invoice statuses.
  • Works alongside your existing accounting and reporting flows.
