📄How to Create and Assign a KeySet to a POS

This article covers a step-by-step guide to Creating and Assigning KeySets in BackOffice. 

Overview

Up to twenty (20) KeyMaps can be added to a KeySet meaning that one SmartPOS Workstation can have up to twenty (20) tabs of Product buttons.

Each new SmartPOS Workstation has a Default KeySet assigned to it in BackOffice.

 

Prerequisites 

  • To access KeyMap and KeySet features, the applicable Operator Privileges will need to be enabled 
    • Products: "Maintain Keymap Settings" Flag
    • Operator Maintenance 'Maintenance' Tab

 

Creating KeySets

To create a New Keyset, follow the steps after logging into BackOffice: 
    1. From the Maintenance menu, select  Product KeyMaps
    2. Click the KeyMap Sets button in the Header Section of the KeyMap List tab

  • Clicking on the KeyMap Sets button will open a new window titled Key Sets
  • Click on the Add New KeySet button in the header Section to create a new keyset
  • This will open a prompt asking for the Name of the New KeySet

  • Once completed, a New KeySet will be created and the Name will display in the KeySet selection drop-down

  • To Add KeyMaps to this new KeySet, select the desired KeyMap/s from the drop-down selectors
  • The order in which the KeyMaps are listed here is the order in which the KeyMap Tabs will display at the SmartPOS Workstation
  • Each KeyMap can be assigned to a different price number from the Price Number drop-down
  • The Tab Lines setting indicates how many Lines of Tabs will display at the SmartPOS Workstation; this option is typically used when a KeySet contains many KeyMaps, which will then display in stacked rows of Tabs
  • Once the KeyMaps have been assigned to the KeySet, the KeySet can now be assigned to the workstation and the Till will display the New KeySet

 

Assigning a KeySet from the KeySets Maintenance Window

  • Select the KeytSet to be Assigned
  • Click Assign to Till (Red)


  • Select your Till from the List.




  • Click Yes
