Creating a location within a zone
In the zone, you can add more than one location, such as upstairs bar and downstairs bar, or kitchen etc. When you create a till, a till will be assigned to a location, and may have different functions as a result, based on the location settings.
In the zone you want to create the location in:
- Click ‘locations’
- Click ‘create location’
- Name your location
- Use the tick box to enable continuous sign in
- Use the tick box to enable a kitchen screen if you are in a kitchen location
- Choose the appropriate receipt template from the drop down list (these are created in the zone -> receipts)
- Choose what receipts you want to be printed – all, food etc.
- Choose allow table tab if you want to allow tabs on individual tables (see setting up a table tab documentation)
- Choose whether you want to enable cash/card pop up – this is a pop up which will ask ‘are you sure the person is paying by cash’ (this helps to avoid cash/card variances if a bar staff member accidentally clicks cash. It is recommended that this isn’t used if you are trying to be very speedy).
- Select the times that you want students to scan their student card when making a purchase in that location – this will bring up a screen which will require staff to select ‘student’ or ‘public’. If ‘student’ is selected, it will ask for the student card to be scanned or a student ID to be entered. This helps with VAT exemption calculations for HMRC.
