Counter
Counter is the sales pad for tagged goods. Pieces placed on a counter reader appear here, ready to be invoiced — useful where each item is unique and expensive enough to be tagged individually, such as jewellery.
Where to find it
Go to EdgeBridge > Counter.
What the pad shows
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Tag (EPC) | The tag on the counter. |
| Piece | The item it is mapped to. |
| On the counter since | When it was first read. |
| Reads | How many times it has been seen. |
Taking a piece off
Put back removes a piece from the pad, and Clear the counter empties it. The screen states the consequence plainly: nothing is sold and no tag is freed — the pad is a staging area, not a transaction.
The sale happens on the invoice, not on the pad. Clearing the counter after a customer leaves without buying is correct and costs nothing; clearing it after a sale does not undo the sale.
From counter to invoice
- The customer's pieces are placed on the counter reader.
- They appear on the pad.
- The invoice is raised from them.
- The invoice frees the tags, so they can be reused — see Item Tags.
Not commissioned
A piece shown as not commissioned has been read but is not ready to sell. Check its mapping before trying to invoice it.
