This outlines How To Issue/Sell A Zen Global Gift Card/Voucher using the Issue 3rd Party Gift Card (#241) POS Key.
Subjects ▼
What Is Required? ▲ ▼
- Ensure the Issue 3rd Party Gift Card POS Key is added to the appropriate Keyboard Layout via the Designer. Refer to How To Add A POS Key To A Layout for more information.
- Also, ensure the same POS Key (via the More Settings button):
- Is given an appropriate Caption. For example, Issue/Top Up A Zen Global Gift Card/Voucher.
- Has the Zen Global Interface selected.
- Has the Enter number first option been selected. This is MANDATORY.
- Has either the Preset Amount or Amounts been configured as required.
- Preset Amount
- Set to a value GREATER than ZERO, to ensure the Amount being loaded onto the Gift Card is preset and CANNOT be overridden.
- Set to a value EQUAL to ZERO, to ensure an Amount can be entered at the time the Gift Card is being issued/sold. This will only be the case if no amounts are configured via the Amounts button.
- Amounts - Select to configure multiple preset amounts from which Clerk/Staff will be able to select one when issuing a Gift Card.
- Preset Amount
Notes...
Once configured these will ONLY be displayed at Touch when the Preset Amount is set to ZERO. That implies a Preset Amount greater than zero will ensure the preset amounts configured in the Amounts screen are ignored and will NOT be displayed at Touch.
- Ensure the Prompt for Email Address option is NOT SELECTED.
