# Point of sale

> Build an order, attach service context, apply discounts, take payment, dispatch work, and complete the sale.

The point of sale takes an order from the first item through payment and completion. The flow can cross management web, a registered mobile device, terminal mode, and the guest experience depending on how the shop serves and collects payment.
