POS Product View Switcher
Toggle between Grid View and a compact List View on the Odoo POS product screen instantly without page reloading.
Odoo 19.0+ Ready Community & EnterpriseModule Overview
This module allows cashiers in supermarkets, retail shops, pharmacies, and grocery stores to switch between the standard product Grid view and a structured, space-efficient List view. When scanning or selecting products from catalogs with thousands of items, a structured list layout with barcodes and stock quantities ensures much faster checkouts and fewer selection errors.
Key Features
Instant Toggle Button
Switch between Grid and List views instantly in the POS navigation bar. No page reloads or configuration changes required.
Rich Detail Columns
The list view displays essential attributes including Product Image, Name, Internal Reference, Barcode, Category, Stock Level, and Price.
Cashier Preference Memory
Saves the cashier's preferred view setting locally. The selected view remains active across browser refreshes and new login sessions.
Flexible Configuration
Enable or disable view switching and set default views (grid/list) per POS shop/bar configuration from Odoo settings.
Real-time Stock Display
Shows the available stock quantities directly inside the list row with reactive class highlights for out-of-stock items.
Responsive & Touch Ready
Perfectly scaled and responsive layout designed to work seamlessly on POS terminals, tablets, and mobile screens.
Business Benefits
Accelerated Checkout Speed
Particularly beneficial for large retail shops where cashiers scan barcodes or look up items from long lists. Reduces checkout queues.
Reduced Input Errors
Displaying barcodes and exact internal codes on each line avoids the risk of selecting the wrong product variants.
