Solutions · No signal
The internet drops. Check-in and the till keep going.
Most booking systems are a web page, and a web page stops when the connection does. BookingPOS keeps the next few days on the device and catches up by itself.
The problem
What goes wrong today
- The manifest won’t load at the jetty, so the crew guesses who turned up.
- A queue at the counter while the shop’s internet is down.
- Printing manifests “just in case” every morning.
- Changes made on paper that never make it back into the system.
How BookingPOS fixes it
Step by step
- Approve the devices
A manager approves each phone or tablet in Settings › Devices, and the roles that may keep manifests offline. Copies on devices are encrypted.
- The app keeps the days you need
Yesterday, today and the next two days: every trip, everyone on it, their medical notes, meeting points and waivers.
- Lose signal, keep working
An orange bar says you’re offline. Check in, undo, mark no-shows and find any booking by name, reference or phone.
- Sell on the till offline
Retail, custom items, cash and card on your own terminal. The receipt says OFFLINE SALE and gets its real number when you’re back.
- It catches up by itself
When the connection is back, every change goes up with the time you made it. Anything that needs a look is flagged for a manager.
What it looks like
The result
Bad signal stops being your problem.
- No printed manifests “just in case”
- No lost sales when the shop’s internet drops
- Nothing typed in twice afterwards
- Never oversold: new bookings wait for the connection
