# Shopify POS Support

**GoAffPro** is compatible with the Shopify Point of Sale (POS) system. If you are operating a POS counter, you can utilize any of the following options to make the POS system work with our app:

### Use Order Tags

* When creating the order via the POS system, ask the customer for the affiliate's referral code, name, or email address.
* After that, you can write any of these as the **order tag** while creating the customer's order in the POS system. 
* Our system will automatically pick up the order and assign it to the affiliate. 

### Use Order Notes

* When creating the order via the POS system, ask the customer for the affiliate's referral code.
* After that, add the affiliate's referral code in the order notes while creating the customer's order in the POS system.
* Our system will automatically attribute the order to the affiliate.

### Use Customer-Affiliate Connect

* Before creating the order via the POS system, ask the customer for the affiliate's referral code, name, or email address.
* Use that to connect the customer's email address/account to the affiliate's account within our app. 
* After that, the order you create for the customer will automatically get attributed to the connected affiliate. 

**Here is the guide for creating a customer-affiliate connection in our app:**

### Assign Sale to Affiliate

* When creating the order via the POS system, you can ask the customer for the affiliate's referral code, name, or email address.
* After creating the order, you can open our app, go to the Sales > All Sales section, and click on **Create new sale manually**.
* Here, select the order number and the affiliate. Finally, click on Assign Order.

### Use Discount Codes

* When creating orders via the POS system, ask the customer if they have a discount code.
* After that, you can apply the discount code to the order.
* If the discount code belongs to an affiliate, the sale will automatically get attributed to them.

**Here is the guide for generating discount codes for affiliates automatically:**

### Use User/Location IDs of POS Machine

#### POS Machine User ID for Order Mapping

* Every Shopify POS machine has user accounts. These user accounts have a unique user ID. You can map this **user ID** to the affiliate ID in the program. 
* Go to Settings > Advanced > Referral Link section and enable the Multiple Referral Codes option. Next, enter this user's ID as an additional referral code in their affiliate account.
* After that, whenever this user creates an order in the POS machine, it will automatically be attributed to their affiliate account.

**Here is the guide for setting the POS machine user ID as an additional referral code for the affiliate:**

{% endcontent-ref %}

#### POS Machine Location ID for Order Mapping

* If you have multiple retail locations, each with POS machines. You can map the **location ID** of the POS machine to the affiliate in the program. 
* Go to the Commissions > Royalty Commissions > Rule based tracking section. Here, create the rule with "Point of sale Source ID" option > set the location ID as the matching value, and select the affiliate. 
* After that, any sale made using that location's POS system will automatically be attributed to the affiliate.
