How OneScaleās offline-first checkout actually works
In retail and food service, internet disconnects should never stop cashiers from ringing sales or printing customer receipts.
1. Local Embedded SQLite
Your catalog, pricing, barcodes, and orders live inside a local database on your desktop. Queries execute locally in milliseconds with zero reliance on remote servers.
2. Direct Hardware I/O
Thermal receipt printers (USB/LAN) and electronic cash drawers fire directly via native hardware commands. No browser print dialogs or cloud print proxies.
3. Background Cloud Sync
Whenever internet is restored, local sales queue records securely upload to your cloud back-office, updating owner dashboards and branch rollups automatically.
Clear Operating Boundaries & Realistic Expectations
Works 100% Offline (No Internet Required):
- Item scanning, price lookup, and cart calculation
- ESC/POS thermal receipt printing & cash drawer kickout
- Cash register shift float, mid-shift X-report, and closing Z-report
- Dine-in table floorplan status and split check settlement
- Local stock deduction and customer contact lookups
Requires Working Internet:
- Daily automated cloud database backup & off-site restore
- Remote owner sales monitoring from phone or web companion
