When users log in, they may, depending on the payment processor in use, need to select a payment terminal.
By setting a 'Location' and assigning it to a group, you can control which payment terminal (and printer) options appear to users.
The following payment gateways require a terminal:
•Servebase (for swiped transactions only)
•TenderRetail
|
Caution
After adding a new terminal or changing an existing one, you must restart the server.
|
Once you have created terminals, they are available for users to select when they log in. If you are using online sales, you must configure which terminal to use. If your organization uses scheduled payments, you must also set the terminal the terminal to be used when processing scheduled payments. For more information, refer to Setting the Payment Processor Terminal ID.
