Scalable Items

Add-on

Use pounds or kilos to price an item.

Overview

Add-on: Sell Weighted Items.

Use the Sell Weighted Items add-on to sell by weight. For example, the price can be for one pound of an item.

Set the right weight unit first. A scale is not required when you enter the weight by hand.

Configure Unit of Weight

Open Settings > Scale Settings. Set Unit of Weight to pounds or kilograms. Use that same unit when you set item prices and enter weight.

Add Scalable Items

Edit the item in Inventory. Turn on Sold By Weight and set the price for one weight unit.

Weight Tear is the app's label for the weight to take off, such as the bag or box. Set it only when needed. Save the item and check one sale before using it for customers.

Sell Scalable Items

Add the item on Sell. Enter the weight when asked, or use the linked scale. Check the unit, weight, and total before you take payment.

The receipt shows the weight used for that sale.

Scale Hardware Integration

Add-on: Scale Device Integration.

Ask Support to check your scale model and device before you buy or connect it. Support depends on the scale model and your device.

For a supported desktop scale, set its serial port in Scale Settings. Use the connection name assigned to the scale on your computer. Ask Support if you are unsure which port to choose.

Use No Scale On This Device? when you need to enter weight by hand. The Scale option on Sell shows a weight reading without adding an item.
