ROLLER POS supports selling through multiple point-of-sale (POS) devices at your venue. You must create a POS device in ROLLER for each physical POS device in your venue.
This guide shows you how to create a new POS device using a template, a new standalone POS device or a new POS template in Venue Manager.
Create a POS device
You can create POS devices using templates or you can create standalone, individual POS devices.
From Venue Manager, go to Venue Manager > Apps > Point of Sale.
Click Create a device at the top of the page.
Then, select the device type:
Select this device type to create a new device using an existing template with the same POS menus.
Select the existing template you want from the template dropdown.
Then customize the new device settings:
- Enter the device name (eg Reception 1, Cafe 1).
- Enter a starting till float (optional).
- Set the device screen size.
- Allow mass ticket redemption (optional).
- Set a minimum quantity to allow mass redemption of tickets within a booking.
- Enabling this setting bypasses waiver allocation at redemption.
- The POS menus are the same as the selected template's menus.
If you edit a menu, the device unlinks from the template selected. Any future changes to the template menus won't be reflected in the device. - Click Save.
Select this device type to create a new, individual device with custom menus that are not synced to any template or other devices. Individual POS devices can't be linked to a template at a later date.
Then set up the device settings and custom POS menus:
- Enter the device name (eg Reception 1, Cafe 1).
- Enter a starting till float (optional).
- Set the device screen size.
- Allow mass ticket redemption (optional).
- Set a minimum quantity to enable the mass redemption of tickets within a booking.
- Enabling this setting bypasses waiver allocation at redemption.
- Click Add menu.
- Enter in the Menu name (eg Day tickets) and select an icon to help distinguish your menu.
- Click Add products.
- Use the search bar to type in the name(s) of your products and select any that you want to add. Click Apply. Learn more about creating and editing your POS menus.
- Repeat steps 5 to 8 for any other menus you wish to add to this POS device.
- Click Save.
