📖 Overview

The Transfer by Seat function allows operators to quickly move items assigned to a specific seat to a new or existing split. This is managed via the ‘Split Xfer Seat’ function button, which can be configured in two different modes:

• Item = 0 → Automatic split creation by seat number

• Item = 1 → Manual seat and split selection

🖥 SmartPOS Workflow

Item = 0 (Automatic Mode)

1. From the active table, tap ‘Split Xfer Seat’.

2. SmartPOS will:

   • Identify all unique seat numbers in the Base Split (or Split 1 if Base Split is hidden)

   • Create a corresponding split for each seat number

   • Transfer all items from each seat to its matching split

3. This works from any split:

   • Select the source split

   • Tap ‘Split Xfer Seat’ to repeat the process

💡 Use Case Example: Automatically splitting a large party’s bill into separate splits by seat for quick individual payments.

Item = 1 (Manual)

1. Tap ‘Split Xfer Seat’.

2. SmartPOS prompts for:

   • Seat Number → the position whose items will be transferred

   • Split Number → target split (enter “0” to create a new split)

3. If the entered split does not exist:

   • SmartPOS prompts: "Create new split?"

   • On confirmation, a new split is generated (system assigns next available number)

4. SmartPOS transfers all items for that seat to the specified split.
