All transactions processed through Point of sale must be allocated to a till, and all tills must belong to a location so we can identify sales by till and location on our sales reports.

Set up locations

The Locations screen is where you set up your retail location names and allocate contact details for various Retail Outlets or Business Units across your organisation. A location provides you with a mechanism for categorising sales and stock reports. 


Please ensure you have a contact set up in the Contacts screen for any new Retail Locations before you begin.

  1. Open the Location screen found under the System menu.
  2. Enter a descriptive name for the Location in the blank row at the bottom of the grid.
  3. Select the contact to associate with the retail location from the drop-list. The address and email details for the selected contact (as configured in the Contacts screen) will print on receipts and vouchers issued from this location. 
  4. Save your changes.



Set up devices

The Devices screen is where you set up the specific machines used at a location. A device can be a till or a gate. E.g. Computer XYZ is a till called "Till1". 

  1. Once the locations have been set up, open the Devices screen found under the System menu
  2. Enter the Device name (till name, max 10 characters) in the blank row at the bottom of the grid
  3. Select the Location from the drop-down
  4. Select the Device type of 'Till'
  5. Save your changes
  6. Enter the till name in the Machine settings screen of each individual computer to open the Point of sale screen. Ensure you close and reopen the Point of Sale screen to update the till name after the changes are made.
