Use Inhouse employee as the default employee

 

If checked, this option will ring up all unassigned line items under INHOUSE. It's not recommended as it is better to track who is selling products/services.

 

Use Automatic Drawer Management

 

Enabling automatic drawer management will only allow one drawer to be opened at a time. Until you Z-OUT and close the drawer,  a new drawer will not open. All users will be on the same drawer. Disabling this option allows the business to have multiple drawers open at once. When a user is logged on a computer or device, they will see a prompt  to choose the drawer the first time they click on the Sales Register.

 

ChooseDrawWindow

This prompt will allow them to open a new drawer or to select a preexisting drawer to log their sales into. This allows users to be on separate drawers if they are on separate computers or devices. At any time that you want to change drawers or open a new one, you can do so by viewing the Z-Out window and selecting the "CHANGE DRAWER" option.  Each drawer created will not closed until you Z-OUT and select to CLOSE the drawer.

 

Show Cash Count Screen When Opening a New Drawer

 

Check this box to require that the cash on hand be counted when opening a new drawer on the sales register. If no amounts are entered on this screen, the default amount is what is entered lower on this page in the "Drawer Starting Cash" field.

 

Show Prebook Reminder during cash out

 

Check this box to receive a prompt if a client does not have a future appointment.  When you click the "Take Payment" button to complete their sales transaction, you will see a window pop up like the one above asking if you would like to create an appointment before checking the client out.  If you click "Prebook Now!" the program will open the Appointment Calendar for you to book the appointment. After you have completed booking the appointment, click on the Sales Register to find the ticket where you left off.

 

PrebookReminderWindow

 

If you click "Take Payment" when the popup appears, it will continue to the payment window.
