# Point of Sale Require Customer

This module was written to extend the functionality of odoo pos and allows you to require a customer for each pos order. In the pos session configuration, you can choose to require the customer for pos orders.

If a customer is not selected, the pos ui will display an error message. In the backend the customer field is required when needed.

Two new options are available:

- Customer ‘Required before starting the order’;
- Customer ‘Required before paying’;

# ‘Required before starting the order’ Option

In the frontend PoS, the default screen is the screen to select customers.

- Users are not allowed to start selling before having selected a customer;
- Users can not ‘deselect a customer’, only select an other one;

# ‘Required before paying’ Option

In the frontend PoS, the user can start selling, but if the user tries to make payment and if a customer is not selected, the pos ui will display an error message.
