Setting up Quick Service ePOS

Created by Turbo Support, Modified on Fri, 9 Oct at 1:05 PM by David Costello

Quick Service ePOS is an alternative till screen — in Turbo's own words, "for use in Retail, Restaurants, Fashion instead of the normal Trade Counter Screen." Trade counter businesses generally stay on the trade counter screen; this is for fast, high-volume selling.


Configure it under Apps → Point Of Sale → Manage.



Refunds


On the Quick Service ePOS, refund to Credit Notes only restricts refunds to credit notes rather than cash back. For a lot of retailers that might be the whole refund policy, enforced at the till instead of on a sign behind it.



The till screen


SettingWhat it does
Only show the Tender button, and hide the quick Cash buttonForces the tender screen so payment type is always recorded
Default to a fix discount option
When searching default to shown Products that are in stockStops staff selling what you haven't got
Turn off "Set this as the new Price for all Sales going forward"Stops a one-off price change at the till becoming permanent — worth turning off in most businesses
Use Departments as PresetsTurns your departments into preset buttons



Fast Cash buttons


Four configurable Fast Cash buttons for your most common tender amounts, so a €20 note is one tap.



Terminals

  • Turn off the Terminal Selection on the POS — where a till is always the same register
  • Default Terminal for Account Payments — Not Required, or a named register such as Main Register

Terminals themselves are maintained under Settings & tools → Sales Orders & Invoices → Terminals.



Signatures on a sale


With an external signature pad connected, a signature can be captured against a sale — for the trade counter that needs signed acceptance on collection.



Loyalty and gift cards

  • Show Loyalty Card button — "used for scanning 3rd Loyalty Cards", so third-party loyalty schemes can be scanned at the till
  • Show Gift Card button

Track both through Analytics: Gift Card & Credit Notes ("your total outstanding liability as well as Gift Card/Credit Notes sales and redemption activity") and Gift Card & Credit Notes Usage. The liability figure is the one your accountant might ask for.



Payment methods and cash


Payment methods are maintained under Settings & tools → Payments & VAT → Payment Methods. Reporting on them: Transactions by Payment, Payment Totals, Cash Journal, Cash Book, Cash Drawer Journal, X Read and End of Day Reprint.
