Payment Screen Button Customization

Overview  

This guide will help you customize the tender buttons on the payment screen of your POS system. You can move, merge, resize, and copy these buttons to fit your needs. This gives you full control over how your payment screen looks and works.

Setup Steps  

  1. Access Payment Screen Settings

    • Go to Back Office > Settings > Payment Screen.

  1. Customize Button Layout

    • You can move, resize, and copy the buttons to create the layout you want. Think of it like arranging icons on your smartphone.

  1. Set Button Functions

    • Each button can be assigned a specific function. Here's a simple guide to what each function does:

      • Payment Method: Choose the type of payment, like cash or credit card.

      • Exact: This button will enter the exact amount needed to complete the sale.

      • Key-In Value: Enter a custom amount to be paid.

      • Set Value: Set buttons for common amounts (e.g., $5, $10). Pressing this button fills in that amount.

      • Fraction: Split the total amount into halves, quarters, or thirds to easily divide the bill among up to 4 people.

      • Round Up: Rounds the total up to the next dollar. For example, if the total is $4.45, this button will change it to $5.00.
