• Key Concepts: 
  Pending transactions are a feature of the IS-R-POS Point of Sale (POS) system. They allow customers to save their shopping cart and come back later to complete the purchase. This is especially useful for customers who need to take time to consider their purchase or who need to wait for approval from a supervisor. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use pending transactions, customers must first create an account with the POS system. Once they have done this, they can add items to their shopping cart and save it as a pending transaction. When they are ready to complete the purchase, they can log in and finish the transaction. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a pending transaction, it is important to make sure that all of the items in the shopping cart are correct and up-to-date. This will ensure that when the customer comes back to complete the purchase, they will not be surprised by any changes in price or availability.
