Create a POS payment method

POS payment methods are different approaches used on the POS for creating payment lines (like cash and credit cards). Every POS payment method that is created can be set up in buttons and used for conducting payments during a sale.

All payment methods have their own cards where all necessary parameters are set up. To open a certain payment method card, highlight its line, and click Manage in the ribbon, followed by View in the dropdown.

To create new POS payment method, follow the provided steps:

  1. Click the Lightbulb button, enter POS Payment Method, and choose the related link.
  2. Create New.
  3. Insert a unique Code for the payment method and a Description in the designated fields.
  4. Choose a Processing Type for the payment method.
    The available options are Cash, Voucher, Check, EFT (used for credit cards), Foreign Voucher, and Payout.
  5. Choose Return Payment Method Code.
    This field specifies which payment method will be used when charging is performed in sales transactions.
  6. Enable Block POS Payment if you don’t want it to be usable on the POS.
  7. If the drawer needs to open when the payment method is used, enable Open Drawer.
  8. In the Include in Counting field state whether the payment method will be included in the counting during the end-of-day process. The following options are available:
    • Yes - During the counting process, you will be presented with a column with the system amount.
    • Yes - blind - During the counting process, the system amount column will not be displayed.
    • Virtual - Virtual counting is created automatically. If selected, you need to pick a bin that will be used for counting in the Bin for Virtual Counting field.
    • No - The payment method will not be included in the counting process.
  9. If this payment method is using a currency that isn’t local, assign the correct currency in the Currency Code field and the currency rate in the Fixed Rate field.
  10. If you wish the posted entries to be compressed, check the Post Condensed field.
  11. Check Zero as Default if you want zero amount to be initially displayed when this payment method is selected.
  12. If you wish the sale to end immediately after the payment is performed with this payment method, check Auto End Sale.
  13. If you wish to add a limit on the Minimum Amount on web orders, enable No Min Amount on Web orders.
  14. Set up Rounding Precision, Rounding Type, and Rounding Gains/Losses Accounts.
  15. If a refund should be made possible, enable Allow Refund.
  16. Use Min Amount and Max Amount if the payment method has minimum and maximum amounts that shouldn’t be exceeded.
