STEP 4

Test the register

Choose Open register and test the selling workflow with approved test arrangements. Review Sessions and Reports afterward.

  • Check stock comes from the correct location.
  • Recording a tender does not itself connect a card terminal.

CHECK YOUR WORK

You’re ready when…

  • The register, device, and staff are configured.
  • A test receipt and stock change have been verified.

IF SOMETHING DOESN’T LOOK RIGHT

Troubleshooting

Why can’t a device open a register?

Check pairing status, the register’s availability, and the staff PIN. Review any existing open drawer session before opening another.

Why is a control missing or unavailable?

Confirm that you are in the correct store and that your role allows this action. Optional apps and channels may require installation, a plan, or activation. Share the screen name and error with support if access is still unclear.
