What To Consider?      ▲ ▼

• Devices to be used in conjunction with Touch, will also need to be added to the POS Devices. For example, KVS, Menu Boards, Touch, Reception, Touchmini, Waiter, etc. 
• The number of active devices cannot exceed the number covered by the Venue's current Swiftpos Registration.
• Touch devices created and flagged as Active can be selected when using the Basic Invoicing menu option in Back Office. However, a Touch device can also be created just for Basic Invoicing, in which case it will NOT need to be added to the list of POS Device.
• Training Device - Devices with an ID within the range of 999901 - 999999 inclusive, are reserved for training use only and will not be counted as a licenced device that is covered by the Venue's Swiftpos Registration. Also, transactions created while using a training device will not be recorded in Swiftpos as a sale. Training devices are provided at no extra licensing cost and can also be used to design and configure keyboard layouts in Back Office to test, prior to activating them across the Venue's active Touch terminals.
