## Check the workflow before choosing your retail POS

Use one of your shop’s products and an original receipt to walk through these checks. Confirm the permissions, devices and connectivity each step needs.

- Returns against the original receipt

### Identify the item and record the sale

Check that a barcode selects the intended product. Review the quantity, price and recorded payment method, then compare the receipt with the sale.

### Find the original sale before a return

Receipt lookup in Sandooq needs a connection and is scoped to the active store. Check the eligible items, refund method and stock treatment before completing a return.

### Compare recorded stock with a physical count

Count the item on the shelf and compare it with the recorded quantity. Review the relevant sales, receiving records and returns before deciding whether an adjustment is needed.
