This helps confirm the order, start preparation or production, and ensure the business receives some payment before final settlement. Odoo POS allows you to record this advance payment smoothly through the down payment option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Setting Up the Down Payment in Odoo POS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To begin, open the <strong>Point of Sale<\/strong> module and click the <strong>Configuration <\/strong>and select<strong> Settings<\/strong>. Under the Point of Sale section, choose the terminal you want to configure. In the <strong>Sales<\/strong> section, you will find the option to set up the advance payment product in the <strong>Down Payment Product<\/strong> field. This setting enables the POS system to accept and process down payments during order handling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"483\" src=\"https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/11\/TenthPlanet-Odoo-POS-Settings-Down-Payment--1024x483.png\" alt=\"Odoo POS Settings Down Payment \" class=\"wp-image-34030\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/11\/TenthPlanet-Odoo-POS-Settings-Down-Payment--1024x483.png 1024w, https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/11\/TenthPlanet-Odoo-POS-Settings-Down-Payment--300x142.png 300w, https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/11\/TenthPlanet-Odoo-POS-Settings-Down-Payment--768x362.png 768w, https:\/\/tenthplanet.in\/odoo\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2025\/11\/TenthPlanet-Odoo-POS-Settings-Down-Payment-.png 1303w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Selecting the Sales Order for Advance Payment in POS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From the POS cart screen, go to the <strong>Quotations<\/strong> section where all completed Sales Orders are listed.
