Payment method card
The POS Payment Method Card is where you define what payment method is going to be accepted on the POS.
| Field Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Code | The code given to the POS Payment Method. |
| Description | The short description of the payment method. |
| Processing Type | The manner in which the POS Method is processed. Many reports are based on this field, so it’s important to provide the adequate type carefully. |
| Return Payment Method Type | Specify which payment method will be returned as change on concluded transactions. |
| Block POS Payment | If you wish to stop using a POS payment method that has been used in the past, you can activate this option. |
| Open Drawer | Specifies if the drawer will be opened after the POS transaction ends when the selected POS Payment Method is used in transaction. |
| Bin for Virtual-Count | This field is used if you set a POS payment method to be self-counted and you don’t need to count it manually. |
| Include in Counting | Determines if the POS Payment Method will be counted when you perform balancing. |
| Currency Code | If you use a foreign currency, you will need to set the currency code here. |
| Fixed Rate | You can specify the Fixed Rate which will be used to convert 100 units of foreign currency into local currency. Example: 1 FCY = 6.15 LCY, hence the value to be inserted = 100 x 6.15 = 615 instead of 6.15. |
| Use Standard Exchange Rate | Instead of defining a fixed rate in the POS Payment Card itself, you can use the Business Central currency rate, defined in Currencies. |
| POS Condensed | As the transactions are posted from POS Entry into General Ledger, you can set that the posting for payment be consolidated for that POS Payment Method. |
| Condensed Posting Description | Set description of the entry by using different syntax. |
| Zero as default on pop-up | When you move to the POS Payment View, the system will suggest an amount to be paid based on the sub-total of all sale lines. If this flag is enabled, the pop-up which usually appears with the sub-total amount will not have a suggested figure. Instead, it will show zero amount. |
| Auto End Sale | When completing a payment and receiving sufficient cash or any payment method to cover the sale amount, the system automatically completes the sale and returns to the POS Sale View, ready for the next sale. |
| No Min Amount on Web Orders | Specifies if there is a limit for the Minimum Amount for the selected POS Payment Method on Web Orders. |
| Warning pop-up on Return | If activated, you will get a warning message on the POS when a return is being performed |
| Rounding Precision | The specified rounding precision depends on what the lowest change supported by the business is. This difference will be created as a rounding figure on the ticket. |
| Rounding Type | Determines how the figures are rounded. |
| Rounding Gains Account | If there is a gain due to the rounding action, the figure will go into this account. |
| Rounding Losses Account | If there is a loss due to the rounding action, the figure will go into this account. |
| Min Amount | You can set a minimum amount for accepting a particular POS Payment Method. In certain countries, businesses will not accept a credit card if the amount of sale is lower than 100, as the commission rates are too high. |
| Max Amount | You can set a maximum amount for accepting a particular POS Payment Method. |
It’s recommended to format MIN and MAX values like -200.000 and 200.000, since it is very unusual to make sales exceeding those amounts. Salespeople may accidentally scan a barcode into the amount box, and finish the sale, with a large amount. This affects revenue reporting etc. Of course, the sales can be reversed afterwards, but the large figures may not reflect positively on the ledgers and reports. Having set a min/max amount blocks the sales from being finalized and makes sure that such mistakes are avoided.
| Field Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Allow Refund | For certain POS Payment Methods, you can set that it’s possible to do refund with the payment method used for the payment. |
| Reverse Unrealized VAT | This field appears when the processing type is a Voucher. On redeeming a voucher, the initial VAT calculated on issuing the voucher can be reversed. For this to work, the General Ledger account associated with voucher needs to have a VAT setup in place. |
The Denominations must be set for the currencies on the POS Payment Card.
