Prepare your device
Prerequisite
Android devices and NP Pay terminals
If you are using an Android device or an NP Pay terminal, install NP Retail Emergency mPOS from Google Play. If your setup includes Tap to pay, you also need the Adyen Payments app, which is available in both live and test variants.
Windows
If you are using Windows, install the NP Retail Emergency mPOS Windows app from your organization’s approved software distribution source. After installation, connect the app to Business Central by running the standard Quick Setup flow and authenticating either by sign-in or by scanning the setup QR code.
Set up the Emergency mPOS app
Open the NP Retail Emergency mPOS app on your device.
The home screen is displayed.If unsynchronized sales exist, you’ll be prompted to sync them.Tap Setup.
The setup menu is displayed.
Tap Quick Setup.
Sign in or scan a QR code to configure the device.
The QR code is provided by the Emergency mPOS Setup administrative section in Business Central.
Additional setup
The other setup pages and the options they contain are briefly outlined in this section. For more details on each individual page, switch to the reference guide
BC setup
Connect the app to Business Central for synchronization.
Configure SMS/email receipt templates.
Payment setup
The payment setup page specifies all configurations related to sales and payments.
Define payment methods (EFT, cash).
Select the payment integration, depending on the device you’re using:
- Tap to Pay - uses the Adyen Payments app; applicable for Android devices.
- LAN Terminal - uses the built-in payment feature on NP Pay terminals.
Configure encryption details for secure transactions.
Establish connection with the Adyen Payments app (Board App).
The Board App option is only relevant if you’re also using Tap to Pay.
For Windows setups, the Adyen Board App flow is not used. In practice, this means Tap to Pay-specific configuration applies to Android-based devices only.
Scanner setup
Use Binary Eye for camera-based barcode scanning.
Opt for HID mode for built-in hardware scanners.
In Windows environments, BinaryEye and camera-based scanning are not part of the flow. The scanner options in this section therefore describe Android-based device behavior.
