Payment Methods - Cheque

Only designated customers can pay by cheque unless, in the Back Office - Employees -Cashier and Sales Team Maintenance - POS Lane permissions Tab, the flag is set to 'Allow Walk In Cheques'.

If you want a more secure model for accepting cheques then you can set the maximum amount the customer is allowed to write a cheque for at the Back Office.

Cheque permissions are set for each customer using the Customers - Customer Maintenance - POS Status Tab option in the Back Office software.

Any NSF payments to be collected are setup inthe Back Office software also.

• If a non zero amount is placed in the 'Collect NSF' box, an automatic charge will be generated on each sale for that amount until paid.
• Touch the 'Other Pay' option at the top of the POS Screen.
• Select 'Cheque' - If the cashier does not have Cheque permissions then a Supervisor prompt will appear that requires a PIN entered before the payment can be taken.
• If a Cashier is not allowed to use the function or the Customer has exceeded their Cheque limit, then a Supervisor prompt will appear.

• If a cheque payment is allowed then the Cheque payment screen will be available when touched.
• Normally the cashier selects Cheque, Exact Amount, Close Sale.

• Select 'Exact Amount' or Key in a partial payment on the Key pad for a split sale.
• If a Cheque is written for more than the Total Sale, the system assumes change due will be given in Cash.
• Touch 'Close Sale' on the payment box to finish the Cheque transaction and accept a cheque as payment.
• The Cash Drawer does not open for a cheque payment if the cashier is setup to open the drawer on Cash payments only.
• If an NSF payment is to be collected then that amount will show on the receipt and be added to the bill when the customer's number is entered.
• If a Return is made to Cheque, then the Returned amount must be specified or the system will assume cash was returned.
