Listed below are the procedures for processing a basic sale at the register.
-
Scan item(s) to be purchased.

Do one of the following:
-
Tap $5, $10, $20, $50, or $100, for a fast tender, or
-
Tap Cash and type the payment amount.

When used during a transaction, the + key duplicates the selected line.
When used in the Tender screen, the + key finalises the transaction with the exact amount.
It is common when serving a customer that they request to pay for their goods with different tender types. For instance, part cash and part credit card. Outlined below are some examples on how to handle different types of split payments:
Tender a Part Cash and Part Credit card sale
- At the Tender Screen type the amount in Cash.
- Arrow down to the EFTPOS/Credit tender type and press + to complete the sale
Tender a Part Cash and Part Cheque sale
- At the Tender Screen type the amount in Cash.
- Arrow down to the Cheque tender type and press + to complete the sale.
Tender a Part Cash and Part Account sale
This should NOT be completed in a single transaction as it will create confusion with statements. Instead complete a total Account Sale and then log back in and complete an Account Payment for the Cash amount given. See Customer Accounts at the Till.
