5. PERMISSIONS
ROLES
Permissions control what is visible on the main POS menu as well as certain other functionality.
By default the Administrator Role has access to all POS features and functions.
Three default Roles are created at time of installation.

6. TAXES
POS has two Rate types already created: NOTAX, Standard.
Go to Stock under Administration and Select Taxes.
Set up Tax bands that can be associated with Products. This allows taxation calculations to be performed automatically.
7. CATEGORIES
Go to Administration -> Stock -> Categories
Use a Category to conveniently group a set of Products.
A default Category is created at the time of install – general. You can rename it and go on to create as many as you need.
Managing your Product catalogue starts with setting up Categories and then adding Products to the Categories you create here.
8. PRODUCTS
Go to Administration -> Stock -> Products
Probably the most important part in POS you need to get right.
Assign everything here from Barcodes through to Sales screen button images.
9. RECEIPTS
Advanced configuration of POS is done via the Resources panel and you should request to the POS Developer if you wish to change or add additional variables.
Go to Administration -> Resources -> Printer.Ticket
10. RESTART
Adding or changing Taxes, Categories, Products and Resources are immediately visible and available to use.
The only exception to this is if you have made a change to the Printer.Start Resource as this initializes the Customer Display when POS starts.
If you have made any setting changes in the Configuration form you need to restart POS for them to take effect.
