What can you set on a POS screen, handheld, tablet or phone?

Answer

Open the device under Connected devices. You set the name, which printer, drawer, kitchen screen and card terminal belong to it, how settling works and what the POS shows and plays. For a POS screen the window has two pages: the first for the devices connected to it, the second for the Till settings.

Where to find it

Settings > Till and products > Tills and equipment, click the device (/Settings/externaldevices).

Explanation

The fields depend on the type. A POS screen or tablet has almost all of them; a handheld or phone has fewer (no cash drawer choice under Other and no question about all products); a field that does not apply is missing. At the top is Edit with the name of the device. At the bottom are Delete, Previous and Next or Save.
