Prerequisites

-
Operator Maintenance 'Till Privileges' Tab - General: "Operate Tills" Flag

Workflow & Example
- To use Bistro Table Accounts, the SmartPOS Function Panel will need to be configured with a Till Function button to open a Bistro Table
- To begin a Bistro Table Account, tap on the Bistro Table Till Function button
- A screen will appear listing any active tables and will have additional Function buttons at the bottom of the window
- Select the New Table (New Bistro Dining) button at the bottom of the window to open a New Bistro Transaction
- Enter the New Table Number and select OK
- Enter the Product/s to be sold and tender the Payment for the current customer
- A similar screen will appear:
- Press the OK button and this screen will appear:
- SAVE & EXIT will save the current table and return the Operator to the login screen
- This will NOT send any messages to any remote printers as Bepoz is expecting additional items to be added to this Table prior to printing at a later date/time
- SAVE, MORE ENTRIES will generate a similar screen allowing additional items to be added to the bill or allowing to take the next guests order:
- The Operator can add the items as previously and take payment; once payment has been completed the following screen will be shown once again:
- CLOSE & PRINT will close the Table and send any messages to Print to any Remote Printers; the Table is now Closed
- If the Close Table and Print to Kitchen button is selected before finalizing a Payment, a dialogue will appear stating that there is a balance owing on the Bistro Table
