Sales Register Codes window: Security tab
Use this tab to control the security settings for this register, such as whether the clerk is required to log off and on between individual sales transactions, whether this register will use the Quick Tender options, and whether the register will automatically become locked if inactive.
Allow Log On / Off Between Sales
Select this check box to allow the sales clerk to log off after making a sale and to require them to log back on before making another sale.
Allow Quick Tender
Select this check box if you want to allow Quick Tender options at this register. Quick Tender options allow the clerk to tender a $20 bill, for example, by pressing or clicking one button, instead of typing
20.00 in the
Tender field. These options are defined in the
CMS Denominations window accessed through the Controller Currencies window and will be available in the
Sales Transaction Closeout window:
Lock Register When Inactive
Use the options in this section to specify whether the register should automatically lock after a period of inactivity, and if so, how long and what message should be displayed.
Log Off Sales Entry Automatically if Inactive
Select this check box if you want the register to automatically log the salesperson out of the register window if it has been inactive for a certain length of time. If you select this option, you can then specify how many minutes of inactivity will be used to trigger the log off.
Log Off After x Minutes of Inactivity
If you selected the Log off Sales Entry Automatically if Inactive check box then use this text field to indicate the number of minutes to wait before automatically logging the salesperson off the register. The range is 1 to 999 minutes.
Display Message
If you selected to have the system automatically log the salesperson off after a certain amount of time, enter the message that should display in the register window when the register is locked. The default message is REGISTER IS LOCKED, but you may want to use a different message. The message can be up to 40 characters in length.
