Add locations and registers
Each shop, truck or warehouse is a location with its own stock, registers, invoice layout and tax settings.

A location is any place you sell from or keep stock: a shop, a food truck, a market stall or a back-room warehouse. Billing is per selling location.
Add a location
- Settings → Business locations → Add.
- Enter the name customers see, the address and a phone number for the receipt.
- Choose the invoice layout (receipt design) and invoice scheme (number format, for example
DXB-0001). - Choose the default selling-price group if this location uses its own prices.
- Save.
Registers
A register is one till: a tablet, PC or phone where sales are rung up. Each location includes registers by plan (1 on Essentials, up to 3 on Growth). Extra registers are an add-on per month, priced for your country on the pricing page.
Warehouses and storefronts
A location that only stores stock (no sales) can be added for transfers and does not need a register.
Tips
- Name locations the way staff speak about them (“Main Street”, “Truck 2”) so reports are easy to read.
- If two shops are in places with different sales tax, give each its own default tax group.
