Point of Sale Lifecycle
The following diagram showcases all the states a Point of Sale can be in, from creation to discardment.
| State | Definition |
|---|---|
| New | The Point of Sale resource has been created in the platform. |
| Registered | The Point of Sale's activation request has been forwarded to the Italian Tax Authority. |
| Activated | The Italian Tax Authority has correctly provided the Point of Sale's certificate. |
| Online | The Point of Sale can correctly issue receipts. |
| Offline | The Point of Sale is not able to function due to hardware, software, or server communication problems. |
| Discarded | The Point of Sale enters this state at the end of its lifecycle. It results in the revocation of the certificate and the blocking of the serial number. |
