Registers¶
Your registers: the cash drawers you open, sell on and close. Each one has its own float and its own cash-up at the end of the day.
Where: menu → Sales → Setup → Registers. The screen is headed Registers setup.
Set up¶
- Tap + to add a register. Name it after where it sits: "Front counter", "Bakery".
- Tap a register to connect its card terminal.
- On each device, tap Switch this device to it next to the register that device sells as.
Switching a device to another register¶
With more than one register, the Sales screen shows the register this device sells as at the top, for example Kiosk. Tap it and pick another to switch. Any staff member can.
Posuku always asks first, and says what changes: which printer the receipts print on, which card terminal takes the cards, and whose cash count the sales go into. Only this device changes; other devices stay as they are.
Any number of devices can sell on the same register. A second tablet at a busy counter does not need a register of its own.
On or off¶
Each register has a switch.
| Switch | What it means |
|---|---|
| On | Can be opened and sold on |
| Off | Not offered when you tap Pay, and can't be opened |
A register you switch off while it is open stays open until it is closed, so its cash still gets counted.
Receipt printer¶
With more than one receipt printer, each sale prints a receipt on all of them until you say otherwise. To send a register's receipts to the printer at its own counter:
- Tap ⋮ next to the register, then Receipt printer.
- Pick the printer and tap Save.
The register then says "Receipts print on" that printer. The cash drawer plugged into that printer is the one that opens.
Once you switch to Registers and printers, receipts are set there instead, and it shows what each register prints.
Kitchen and bar dockets are not set here. They print wherever their categories are set on the Printers screen, whichever register took the order.
On POS Lite¶
POS Lite uses one register, on as many devices as you like. Only one switch can be on. To use a different register, switch it on and the others switch off.
Posuku Pro runs as many registers as you need, each with its own cash drawer and cash-up. See Plan & billing.
| You try | What happens |
|---|---|
| Open a register that is off | You are told it is switched off, and where to switch it on |
| Switch on a second register on Lite | The first one switches off |
| Open a register while one from before your move to Lite is still open | You are asked to close the open one first |
Good to know¶
- You can't switch off your only register, or the last one that is on.
- Deleting the register that is on switches the next one on.
- Opening, closing and cash-ups are on the Register page.
