Question

Can I use Tagrain offline without an active internet connection?


Answer

Yes, you can use Tagrain offline without an active internet connection. However, there are some limitations. 


Using Tagrain App offline

You can use Tagrain on an android tablet, without requiring an active internet connection.

Once you open the Tagrain App, it only requires the internet to sync for the first time at the start of the shift, updating your stock levels. After you're logged in to your Tagrain android app, you can use it in offline mode to perform unlimited number of sale transactions and related functions. The details of the transactions are recorded and stored on the tablet itself. At day end you can connect to the internet and the moment you connect; it will sync data back to the Tagrain cloud. 


Important


An active internet connection is required to synchronize data and perform back office transactions.



Using Tagrain Web offline

To use the web version of Tagrain, all you need to do is to type in the URL in a web-based browser. You will be required to have an active internet connection to get started. Without it, you cannot log in to the web application.


Important


If the internet connection drops out during the day, you can continue to perform sales transactions, as long as you do not end the active browser session. Closing the browser will close the active session. The details of the transactions are recorded and stored in the cache history of the browser.



As and when the internet resumes, the transactions would sync, only if the active browser session was not closed or interrupted. However, it will not allow you to perform any back office functions.
