Give a cashier their own till login, not just a PIN behind a supervisor
A PIN cannot open a closed terminal. The PIN route needs a session that already exists, so a PIN-only account works only while somebody else is standing there to unlock the till first. For a supervisor that was an outright deadlock and was fixed last commit. For a cashier it is subtler and just as wrong: the shop cannot open until two people have arrived, and whoever gets in at seven is as often the cashier as the supervisor. So every till account now gets a username and a password, and the role decides the shell rather than the credential deciding it. A cashier signs in exactly the way a supervisor does and is still held to billing only, because that comes from roleid 8 and not from how they got in. The earlier reasoning — that a second password is one more credential to leak for no capability gained — was measuring the wrong thing. It counted the cost of the credential and not the cost of the shop that cannot open without one. CreatePosUser generates both when the request omits them, so provisioning is one call per person and nobody has to invent a naming scheme. An explicit value always wins. A generated name that collides walks to the next free one, because a second cashier at one counter is ordinary rather than an error; a name the caller supplied is refused instead, because silently signing somebody in as another person's address is worse than a message. Uniqueness is checked against authname and email together, since the insert writes the same value to both and app_users_email_unique would otherwise fail the transaction rather than return something anyone can act on. The password comes back exactly once, in the creation response. Listing till users still reports only has_password, so an admin who loses it reissues rather than looks it up — the right shape even while the column behind it is plaintext. The domain is deliberately unroutable. These are till credentials, never a mailbox, and an address that looks deliverable invites somebody to try sending a reset to it. Verified against live rows by scratch/posseparation, which now checks the cashier path too: cashier.1185@pos.nearle.in opens a closed terminal alone and comes back can_manage_staff=false. All five outlets that stock products have both accounts, each proved by an actual sign-in. Also drops a stray `print(queryBuilder.String())` from GetAllUsers, which was writing the whole SQL statement to stderr on every call. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Stop the till and Nearle Daily from sharing accounts
app_users is the only thing the two products have in common, and the code was treating it as though it were the whole relationship. Both directions leaked. Back-office roles were leaking into the till. PosRoleCanManageStaff returned true for roleid 1 to 6, on the reasoning that somebody who already administers a shop from a browser is not made less privileged by standing at the counter. That sounds fine and is wrong: measured against live data it handed till-supervisor powers to 68 accounts, 59 of them Nearle Daily Super admins, not one of whom is the administrator of anybody's POS. Meanwhile the actual shop accounts carry roleid 0 and were refused, so the mapping was backwards from intent in both halves at once. Till accounts were leaking into the application. GetStaffs is WHERE tenantid with no role filter, so a Counter Cashier appeared in the tenant staff list beside the delivery riders — a row every action on that page would fail against, since a cashier has no app login, no rider shift and no back-office screen. So: eligibility for a till is now granted explicitly by provisioning a Supervisor or a Cashier, never inherited from a back-office role, and roles 7 and 8 are excluded from every Nearle Daily lookup. The exclusion lives in the queries rather than in a check after them, because a check bolted on afterwards has to be repeated at six call sites and is one edit away from being forgotten at one of them — and that one would be the hole. A till account is not rejected by the app login; it is not found. Two things this surfaced that were not visible before. A Supervisor could not open a till. PIN sign-in needs a session that already exists, so once back-office roles were refused, an outlet whose only POS accounts were PIN-only had no way in at all. Supervisors are now provisioned with a username and password as well as a PIN; cashiers deliberately get neither, because they sign on at a counter somebody has already opened and a second password would be one more credential to leak for no capability gained. UpdatePosUser silently dropped authname. It wrote the password, reported success, and left the account unreachable by either lookup — the failure surfaced at a counter as "not recognised" rather than on the screen that caused it. Contactno had the same gap. Verified against live rows rather than asserted, by scratch/posseparation: a provisioned supervisor signs in and gets the supervisor shell; five real back-office accounts including Super admins are refused; the supervisor is invisible to applogin, tenant weblogin and the password-setup lookup; and no till account appears in getallusers, while asking for role 7 by name still returns them so the console can read its own people. All five outlets that stock products now have a Supervisor and a Cashier. Also moves the loose markdown into docs/, which was already staged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Let a shop run its own counter: supervisor and cashier, created from the till
A shop had no way to add the people who work in it. The terminal fell back to
three names and three PINs compiled into the app — the same three on every
install — because there was nothing for it to fall back *from*.
Two roles now exist in `app_roles`: Supervisor (7) runs the terminal and creates
staff, Cashier (8) bills. Fixed ids, written by hand, because that table has no
sequence and every id in it was assigned the same way. configid is left NULL
rather than duplicated per portal: a till is a till whichever portal a tenant
uses, and Admin already appears twice in that table for exactly that reason.
`/pos/users` is CRUD over them, and `/pos/login/pin` signs a cashier on at a
terminal a supervisor has already opened.
The rule every one of these follows: **tenant and outlet come from the caller's
token, never from the request.** There is no location field on the create body
to get wrong. A supervisor at Selvapuram cannot create staff at R mart, for the
same reason a till cannot bill into another shop's books — it is the same
inversion applied to people instead of sales.
PIN sign-in is deliberately behind the guard. Four digits is ten thousand
guesses, which is no barrier to an anonymous caller; requiring a session means a
real password opened the terminal first and the guesses are confined to one
outlet's own staff. The session it mints is fresh rather than derived, so a
cashier taking over from a supervisor drops their permissions instead of
inheriting them.
Three things the schema forced:
- A PIN cannot start with zero. `app_users.pin` is a bigint, so "0451" stores as
451 and reads back as three digits — a cashier would type four and be refused
for ever. Live data already holds one such account. Rendering refuses to show
a PIN it cannot represent, rather than showing a short one nobody can type.
- `app_users` has no sequence either, so the next id is read and written inside
one transaction behind an advisory lock. Two supervisors creating staff at the
same moment would otherwise compute the same id and one insert would lose.
- 1234, 1111 and friends are refused outright. Live data has 1234 on eleven
accounts and 1111 on nine.
Proven against outlet 1135, which had zero staff and was the reason the built-in
PINs were still load-bearing:
created 9188 Store Supervisor Supervisor can_manage_staff=true
created 9189 Counter Cashier Cashier can_manage_staff=false
/pos/staff now returns 2 an unknown PIN is refused
