Use Exchange Mobile when the customer gives one device and receives another. Confirm both device values, the customer details and the settlement difference before saving.

Before you start

  • Identify the device coming in and the device going out before starting the exchange.
  • Check the customer record and any existing invoice history that supports the exchange.
  • Know how the price difference will be settled before finalizing the transaction.

Step-by-step guide

  1. Open Exchange Mobile and capture the incoming device details together with the outgoing replacement item.
  2. Review the trade-in value, selling value and any extra payment or refund that results from the exchange.
  3. Confirm customer information, payment handling and device identifiers before saving.
  4. Complete the exchange and open the saved transaction if you need to print or re-check the final details.

How to confirm it worked

  • Both incoming and outgoing device records are visible in the saved exchange transaction.
  • The settlement difference matches what the customer actually paid or received.
  • Serialized device history remains traceable after the exchange.

Common mistakes

  • Running the exchange in standard POS when the transaction needs trade-in logic.
  • Leaving the incoming device details incomplete.
  • Saving the exchange before confirming the price difference and payment direction.
