Initial system setup

Configure staff, permissions, and store settings once — avoid rework later

Store basics

1

Name and contact

Settings → Store info: name, address, phone (printed on receipts).

2

Business hours

Set operating hours so checkout aligns with your schedule.

3

Receipt layout

Customize header (logo/name) and footer (thanks line / contact) for branding.

Staff accounts and permissions

Follow least privilege — grant only what each role needs.

1

Create accounts

Staff → Add: name, mobile (login), role.

2

Assign levels

Cashier, Supervisor, Store Manager, Admin — or custom permission sets.

3

Operation PIN

Each person gets a 4-digit PIN for switching users on the POS.

Tips
  • Keep at least one Admin account for configuration and exceptions.
  • Temp staff accounts can expire automatically.

Payment methods

1

Merchant accounts

Apply for local payment providers as needed; advisors can guide the process.

2

Bind payment channels

Settings → Payments: follow the wizard for each method.

3

Cash drawer

Enable cash tender and cash-drawer open prompts if required.

Printer setup

1

Connect the printer

USB or network; drivers are usually detected automatically.

2

Test print

Settings → Printer → Test print to verify layout.

3

Auto-print rules

Choose when receipts print (sale, refund) and whether to ask the customer.
