Multiple POS setup checklist
- Both POS should have the the same PTU information
- KEEP THE PTU DETAILS BLANK on the reported POS to prevent the client from using it without any permit.
- Both POS should have different database setups. Listed below is the setup for the hidden POS:
- port: 3307
- Schema name: test
- password: 123456
- For the terminal number, here are the guidelines to decide:
- Both POS should have different terminal numbers.
- The reported POS should be starting from 1 and the partner POS should be starting from 11 (for clients that have small business only)
- The partner POS should start from 51 if the client is estimated to reach more than 10 POS
- If the client hasn't started using the system yet, the settings should be set is:
- showcompleteor = 0
- posdpercent = 100
- posdminamt = 2000000
- posdmaxamt = 2000000
- posddisableswitch = 1
- posdautoxz = 0
- posdautoswitch = 0
- posdreceiptautoswitch=0
- xzdesign_unite = 1
- If the client has already started using the POS the settings should be:
- showcompleteor = 0
- posdpercent = 100
- posdminamt = 2000000
- posdmaxamt = 2000000
- posddisableswitch = 1
- posdautoxz = 1
- posdautoswitch = 1
- posdreceiptautoswitch=1
- xzdesign_unite = 1
- if the client is already using the POS before implementing this, we should use the O function for the new POS so that the OR number will not be too far behind.
- To set the new theme use the following settings: colortheme=7, pos ui type = true (this is optional, it's allowed by tony to use the same default UI)
- New theme = hidden | Old Theme = Reported
- make sure to run this query in the new port to allow remote connections:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY '123456' WITH GRANT OPTION; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; - Make sure to install the hidden software in a different directory
C:/cp/[put_pos_files_here] - Each POS will have it's own autosync / manualsync software
- Recommend the following to the client:
- create multiple desktops so that they can easily switch between desktops and make sure the hidden one is closed when there's an ongoing investigation
- Transactions with credit cards, debit cards, mobile payments, and senior/pwd transactions that have reports to other third party companies should be placed in the reported POS
- it's better if not everyone in the company knows of the hidden POS or what it's for
