      • Allow Over Tender - Select to allow over tendering. This ONLY applies to the Loyalty Redemption (#529) POS Key which has been replaced with the Charge / Redemption (#151) POS Key.
      • Fixed Account - Select to assign a specific Account to the selected Finalise POS Key and enable the Validate to Swiftpos Connect option.

This is done via NetPOS.

      • Prompt When Partial Amounts Are Being Tendered - Select to ensure that a confirmation prompt is displayed when a partial payment is being tendered. The Clerk/Staff Member can then decide whether to proceed or not. This is generally used to avoid the incorrect amount being finalised, as a result of Clerk/Staff Member being distracted and NOT completing a previous Order/Sale. When selected, a confirmation prompt will be displayed providing Clerks/Staff the opportunity to take stock of the amount being tendered and ensure it is correct before proceeding.
      • Return to Layout - Select to open the Search Layouts screen to select a Layout to which focus will return once the finalisation of a Order/Sale is completed.
