Terminal Records are crucial to processing Execu/Touch POS properly.

• Each physical workstation or handheld device must have a unique terminal number. That terminal number is determined by the Execu/Tech shortcut settings.
• For information on correctly setting up POS terminals, see Software Installation.  Also, see Create Short Manually and ETShortcutWizard.
  
  You MUST read Execu/Tech's System Requirements prior to setting up new POS workstations.

Terminal Record Configuration

You may configure the Terminal Setup Record from any workstation.



"Terminal:" is the number for this terminal, as determined by the Execu/Tech shortcut for this terminal.

"Description:" is the location or function of this terminal, such as HOST, F&B ADMIN, CASHIER2, etc.  You may enter any description you wish, up to 20 characters.

"Revenue Center:" is the revenue center for this terminal, up to 10 characters.  See Departments/Revenue Centers .  This is optional.

"Receipt Printer:" is the unit number for the receipt printer for this terminal.  Receipts as well as presentation checks will print from this terminal.  See POS Printer Setup .

"Print logo?:" will print your logo on the receipt if this field is set to Y.  This works for Epson printers only with specific drivers; instructions are provided by Epson.

"Keyboard type/font size:" Enter T in the first field if you are using a touch screen computer.  Enter H in the first field if you are using a Handheld device.  You may leave the second field blank, or enter M for medium font and L for large font.

"Terminal location:" should be blank except for the following:  D or drive-through; T for Take-out: C for Cafeteria; X for a workstation that should not be logged out at POS End of Day - for example a clock-in/clock only terminal.

"Print check when Done/New?:" if Y will automatically print a check when Done/New is selected at item entry.  N will not print a check automatically when Done/New is selected from this terminal.

"Print time on each line of check?:" if Y will print on the guest check the time of day each item was ordered.

"Allow 'open cash drawer'?:" if Y will allow the cash drawer to open for this terminal.  N will not allow the cash drawer to open.

"Print check when closed to cash?:" will allow three options:  Y will print a check when closed to cash.  N will not print a check when closed to cash.  Q will not print a check when closed to cash for Quick-key employees but will print for others.  See Employee Records  for explanation.

"Inventory location/ company:" is optional and defines the company or location for inventory for this terminal if you are using Execu/Tech's Inventory Control module.

"Default table section:" sets the default table section to display for this terminal (except for Quick-Key  employees).  See Table Setup .

"Optional customer display unit no.:" corresponds to the printer unit number assigned to an EMAX compatible customer display.  This field should be 0 (zero) unless you have contacted Execu/Tech regarding customer display unit setup.

The table in the middle section assigns the menu and alternate menu to display through the day and week for this terminal.  Each terminal may have unique setting, or terminals may have identical settings. "Start Time" should be 00.00 for the first line even if your venue does not open until a later time such as 5:00 am.  This allows you to access the system outside of business or service hours.  Time should be in this format:  5:30am = 05.00 and 5:30pm = 17.30 with 24.00 being midnight.  As shown above, the first menu's service time is 00.00 (beginning right after midnight) to 11.00 which is 11:00am. "End Time" should be the ending time for this menu or service time.  Time should be in this format:  11:30am = 11.00 and 11:30pm = 23.30 with 24.00 midnight.  As shown above, the first menu's service time ends at 11.00 which is 11:00am.  On the last service or menu of the day, you should enter 24.00 as the ending time so that you can access the system even after business or service has ended. "Shift" may be 1 through 5 if you wish reporting by shift.  Note that at the time designated the menu will switch to the next menu, regardless of a shift's starting and ending time.  For example, a shift may cover three service times. "Menu" will be the primary or default menu number (1-8) designated for this service time range.  See Menu Items. "Alt Menu" will be the alternate menu number designated for this service time range.  You do not have to have an alternate menu.  In the example above, only Menu 3 is available after 17.30 (5:30 pm). "Sun?" | "Mon?" | "Tue?" | "Wed?" | "Thu?" | "Fri?" | "Sat?" | allows you to designate days of the week that a menu is available.  For example, you might have a different breakfast menu on weekends than on weekdays.  If the two breakfast menus have different menu numbers, then you can designate the appropriate menu for the day.  In these fields, answer Y for this menu to display and answer N for it not to display.
