POS machine for products order:

Step 1 - Setup and Configuration

The first step in setting up any electronic touch screen cash register is to ensure the device is connected to a power outlet and switched on.

Next, the register must be configured to accurately process transactions. This can involve you manually programming in the time and date, in addition to establishing language settings.

Ensure there is an adequate supply of paper in the receipt printer. Many registers may also require a unique clerk code to be entered.

This allows employers to identify which member of staff was responsible for specific transactions, regardless of how many utilize the same register.                                                                                                                                                                                              
*this will be set up by the company*

Step 2 - Product Input

Choose the order that customer order, such as hot drinks, cold drinks, counter foods, breakfasts, lunch, cakes, retail, and soft drink.

Each button screen you touch will come out variety of list and price will show up, the machine will calculate the transaction total.

In situations where products do not show in the screen users must enter this information manually.

Step 3 - Calculation and Total

Once each product has been touch, the user should then select a 'sub-total' option which allows the register to calculate the total cost of the transaction.

This information will be displayed to the user on the monitor, and in most instances to the customer on a small LCD display screen.

Step 4 - Sale

If the customer wishes to pay by cash, the user must select the 'cash' option on the touch screen and manually enter the amount of cash provided or quick touch screen button such as “$5, $10, $20, and $50” then pressing 'commits'.

By doing so, the secure cash draw will automatically open, allowing the user to provide any required change (the amount of which will also be displayed on the monitor). At the same time, a receipt will be printed for the customer.

If the customer wishes to pay by credit or debit card, the user must select card option on touch screen. In some cases, customers may then enter their card and PIN number into a card terminal linked to the register.

If the system goes off-line, the user has to manually key in the total amount from the merchant, such as:

• Menu
• Purchase
• Enter the amount
• Press ok

Alternatively, the user may swipe the magnetic strip on the customer's card, and provide either a receipt for them to sign or a modern digital signature capture device. Finally, the user presses 'sale' to complete the transaction.
