A consumption note can be created directly from the Ebriza POS NEXT app, without having to access the Administration platform. This is especially useful for employees working shifts, such as waiters, who may not have access to the Administration area.
Where to find the consumption note in POS?
In the Ebriza POS NEXT app, you can access consumption notes from the Other menu. Select Consumption Notes, displayed under the description “Stock Deduction.”
Here you will find a list of previously issued consumption notes, including information such as the note number, date, time, total amount, and reason. To find a specific document more easily, you can search by note or product and filter the results by period.
How to create a new consumption note?
To create a consumption note directly from the POS, open the Consumption Notes section and tap Add, represented by the “+” icon.
Add the stock products you want to deduct from inventory and enter the corresponding quantities. Then complete the Reason field by specifying why the document is being created.
After checking the products, quantities, and total amount, tap Save Consumption Note.
Once saved, the consumption note automatically deducts the selected quantities from inventory. The document has the same effect as a consumption note created from Admin, and notes created through either method can be found in the same Inventory history.
In the POS app, consumption receipts cannot be printed or exported: there you can only create, view, search and filter them. To print a consumption receipt or to get a list of them (for example for your accountant), go to Admin (ebriza.com) → Stock Management (or Stock Management Premium) → History, select the "Consumption receipt" tag, then on the receipt's row click the three dots → "Edit stock movement (Consumption receipt)" → "Print". For the list, use the "Export" button on the same page. The steps are in the article "How do I make a consumption receipt?".
What permission does the role need, for example, a waiter?
No separate permission is required to create consumption notes from the POS. The same permissions are used as for consumption notes created from Admin.
The user's role must have Write permission for the Inventory - Stock menu item. The POS app uses the same permissions configured for the user's role in Admin.
To grant this permission, go to Account Settings - Roles in Admin and select the desired role, for example Waiter. Under Inventory - Stock, select Write and save the changes.
After the permissions have been updated, the user must log out and log back into the POS app. Permissions are loaded when the user logs in, so the changes will not become available in the app until the next login.
I granted the permission, but the option is still not visible?
In the POS app, the Consumption Notes option in the Other menu is available when the role has at least Read permission for Inventory - Stock. To create a new consumption note, the role must have Write permission for the same menu item.
In Admin, there are three access levels available for each menu item: Not Allowed, Read, and Write. Selecting Write includes both Read and Write permissions, so a single setting is enough for users who need to create consumption notes.
If the option is still not visible, first check whether the user has logged out and logged back in after the permission was changed. If the issue persists, check the role again and make sure Write is selected for Inventory - Stock, then save the changes.
If you prefer to create the consumption note from Admin, go to Inventory - Stock and use the Consumption Note button. For more details, see the article “How do I create a consumption note?”.
