How to Sign in with a Till
When a teller is ready to get started they must first sign into a Till.
If tellers wish to use the same till, once ready to get started they should all sign into the Shared Till.
Signing in
- To sign into a cash register open the 'Till Module' and double click on the till you wish to use.
Sign into till
- Click on 'Sign In'. Your user name will appear along with the time and date you signed into the till.
- Hit 'Close'.
Signed in user
- Once signed in, the teller's name will appear on the main page with their sign in date and time so other tellers do not use the same till.
Assigning Users to a Till
- Once you have created a new till, you must assign a user to it. Each user must be associated to their cash register in order to be able to make transactions.
Forgetting to assign a user to a till
If a user is not signed into a till or assigned to one, their cash account will be invalid and unrecognized by the software and they will be presented with an error message like the one below.
They will not be able to carry through with a transaction until they are properly assigned and signed into a till.
To resolve this issue, you must go back and ensure you have followed the steps in this chapter carefully.
Signing in with a different user
- To sign in with a different user you must first sign out of your till (see 'Closing the Till' in 'Closing Procedures' chapter for sign out instructions).
- Then double click on the current user in the module panel as shown below.
Enter User Name and Password
- Enter the user you wish to sign in from the drop down menu in the 'User Authentication' window and password then hit 'Login'.
Sign user into till
- Now the different user may sign in by double clicking on the till they will be working from. Then hit the 'Sign In' button and click 'Close'.
