Whats New in Zoho POS - March 2026

Whats New in Zoho POS - March 2026

Hello everyone,

Welcome to Zoho POS’s monthly update, where we share our latest feature updates, enhancements, events, and more. Let’s take a look at how March went.

Zoho POS Android app with Arabic and RTL support for Saudi Arabia

We have launched the Zoho POS Android app for the Saudi edition of Zoho POS. The application offers a complete Arabic user interface with full right-to-left (RTL) support, along with access to English and French languages to cater to diverse retail needs. You can print invoices in Arabic, English, or a combination of both, with support for both left-to-right (LTR) and right-to-left (RTL) formats. The app is available on the Playstore.


Register-based item mapping in register profiles - Beta

In our recent community post, we shared about the register profile functionality which allows you to customize each of your registers with unique payment, customer, sales, and session preferences to suit different business requirements.

In addition to this, we have introduced a new enhancement that enables you to map items to specific registers. You can create register profiles by associating selected items with them and then assign these profiles to registers. Once assigned, only the items mapped to that profile will be available in the register, along with the configured preferences such as payment types, customer settings, sales configurations, and session controls.

How does this help you?
Idea
Imagine you run a supermarket business across three different locations with a shared inventory, where each store operates slightly differently based on its demography.

Location 1 sells grocery items and plastic kitchenware, with minimal electronics, and accepts only cash, card, and UPI payments, as these are the preferred methods in that area.
Location 2 sells kitchenware, electronics, toys, and a limited selection of grocery items, catering to a different customer base.
Location 3, located in a densely populated metropolitan area, sells all categories of items and supports all payment modes.

Using register profiles, you can create three distinct configurations by mapping relevant items or categories along with POS and payment preferences for each location, and assign them to their respective registers. This ensures that each store operates efficiently with only the items and options relevant to its needs.


Generate KOTs from the Zoho POS iOS application - Beta

A kitchen order ticket (KOT) is a core part of cafe, canteen, chat shop, and bakery operations. They ensure orders move smoothly from billing to the kitchen. A KOT is essentially a slip, either printed or digital, that includes key details such as the order ID, items ordered, quantity, and the time of the order.

KOTs help businesses efficiently communicate order details to the kitchen, reducing manual effort and minimizing errors. These slips are generated alongside customer invoices and can be shared with the kitchen as printed slips, enabling faster and more accurate order preparation.

With this release, KOT functionality is now supported in both Windows and iOS native application.

Can you display a simple total at the bottom of all invoice lists? ie: I click in SALES tab, select INVOICES and on that page please show us a simple total? Yes, I realize I can go the long way around and generate reports and select my date options and select the type of invoices etc...but honestly that shouldn't be necessary when just viewing a list of unpaid invoices and how much total is outstanding.
