Terminal Launch Screen

The terminal launch screen is the “launching” point for all the other parts of the POS system. It is a central location where you see updates and notes on what is happening at the store today as well as navigate to other sections in the terminal. Many of the names of the buttons below are links to other pages that further detail what that section of the system does.

1. 

   New order - use new order when you want to start a new tab and assign it to a table number and enter how many guests there are.
   
   
   

   

2. Quick Order - This will let you ring in an order without opening a tab or assigning a table number. This is meant for quick service.
   Example: A customer comes up, orders a pop, pays out right away and the transaction is done.
   If you hit “Send” or “Done” while in quick order it will start a tab with a table number of 0 (zero)
