Version 7.5.6 - 3

Software Requirements

.NET Framework

The .NET Framework is a software component that can be added to the Microsoft Windows operating system. It provides a great number of pre-defined code solutions for general application demands, and manages the execution of programs that especially written for framework. The .NET Framework is an important Microsoft component, and the intension is that most applications that are developed for the Windows platform will use it.

Version 2.0 or higher is needed for the installation of PosPRO.

Windows PowerShell

Windows PowerShell™ is a new task-based command-line shell and scripting language designed especially for system administration. Built on the Microsoft .NET Framework, Windows PowerShell helps IT professionals and power users control and automate the administration of the Windows operating system and applications that run on Windows.

Hardware installation

Introduction

Inepro uses the AerPOS model till.

The AerPOS is a beautiful POS terminal with an ultra slim display, sleek chassis and small footprint design. The AerPOS looks elegant, yet it can endure the toughest retail and hospitality applications with its no venting design and aluminum chassis.

Version 7.5.6 - 7

Hardware installation

Buttons & connections

The last cash register had one on / off button used to power off (or power on) the machine. This cash register has two on / off buttons. It also has a USB connector on the right side so the USB extension cable is no longer needed.

Turn cash register on / off

On the right side of the cash register the on / off button, hard disk activity LED and USB connector can be found. Use this button to turn off the machine when asked by the Inepro support team. Normally the cash registers will remain powered on to provide Inepro to service the machine out of operating hours.

Turn screen on / off

If the screen must be be turn off, use the on / off button on the front of the screen. This can be used to save power and to indicate that the cash register is no longer in service at this time.

By default the cash register will have either a PayCon or an EFT Terminal connected to provide EFT payments, but alternatively they can both be connected.

In that last case the PayCon will be used to identify the customer (and optionally it's online account), but the EFT Terminal can still be used for EFT payments.

Hardware installation

EFT or PayCon

When the user wants to pay with other means then cash, opt for the PayCon or for an EFT terminal. When the Inepro system is also used for printing payments, purchases at vending machines or building access, the user can pay with the money in their Inepro account or on their Inepro card by using the PayCon. In those cases a reloader will often already be available that has the ability to put money on their account or card by PIN, credit card, coins or banknotes. If the Inepro card or Inepro account are not wanted as a source of payment with the PosPRO cash till, but the ability to pay with PIN or credit card is, an EFT terminal is needed.

OPOS:

OPOS, Object Linking and Embedding for Retail POS consists of an architecture for Win32-based POS device access. Point of sale (POS) or checkout is the location where a transaction occurs, it is sometimes falsely used to describe the POS terminal or till. OPOS also consists of a set of POS device interfaces sufficient to support a wide range of POS solutions. It provides a consistent interface to POS peripherals for use by application creators.

The Epson OPOS SDK gives easy access to the POS devices and their settings.

We will check the connection to the Line Display, printer and cash drawer.

Creating special products

Some product need to be linked to other products or are sold based on their content or weight. We will explain how to create these products.

To create products with the content property set the content type to 'Pieces' if it consists of more then one item, to 'weight' of the price is based on the products mass, and to 'volume' if it is based on the volume the product contains. Set the content factor, if the content type is 'weight' and the content factor = '100', the price will be be per 100 gram of that product. To create a linked product, have the main product have the link type 'Linked' and the linked product have the link type 'Normal'. Linked products and products with a content property may be combined.

Page 41

Version 7.5.6 - 35

Configure IBOS - CashPRO

Finally go to the main product, that has the link type 'Linked' and link the other product(s) to this product. The other products will be sold if this product is.

Creating a PosPRO product template

Finally we will gather a number of products in a PosPRO product template. In the PosPRO product template we will be able to select the products that should be sold and link them to the PosPRO reports and the presentation layers (a layer with a selection of product buttons). One PosPRO template can be used for multiple PosPRO tills.

Page 42

36 - PosPRO

Configuration

Select the different product that need to be sold in this specific (range of) till(s), in the right section of the window and drag them to the left section (or use the blue arrow buttons on the border).

1) Create Product Groups (these are used in reports created on the till)

a) Create the product groups that are needed, mind that the 'Group Position' can never be '0'.

2) Create Presentation Layers (these are layers with product buttons)

a) Create Presentation Layers, the normal layers should have a number from 1 to 24 (inclusive),

it can not be '0' and layers with an ID higher then 24 are not visible.

b) Special layers can be created, these layers can be used as the main screen, or a layer that has

the products that are sold most. For example create a breakfast and a lunch layer that will only be shown at the appropriate times. These layers will need a number higher then 24. i) A special period layer should be created for a maximum of 4 periods.

Page 43

Version 7.5.6 - 37

Configure IBOS - CashPRO

3) Assign the PosPRO Product groups in the Products tab, remember these are product groups,

which are used for the reports created on the till.

4) Assign the Presentation Layers, remember, one product can be on more then one presentation

layer, so then the same product must be added again.

5) Assign a Colour for the button, to make it easier to search for the right product.

6) Edit the PosPRO.ini

a) TabSheet Period = <Most sold / main layer ID> b) Main tab = <Most sold / main layer ID>

Configure IBOS - CashPRO

Logo

The logo is an image printed on the top of the receipt, aligned in the center. If no image is present in the directory, no image is printed on the receipt. To change the logo go to C:\Inepro\Pictures and create or change the PosPROlogo.bmp file. The file should be monochrome and should be less then 4 Kilobyte in size. If these restrictions are not adhered the image will not be printed.

Header text

The header text is the text directly printed under the logo image (if one is present). It is usually used for presenting the company name. To change the logo go to C:\Inepro\Text and edit the file header.text There are no known restrictions for the header text.

Receipt content (Product list with prices)

The receipt content is the transaction information and can not be changed. It will show per line how many items are sold, the item description, price per item and the price for the items sold. Furthermore it will show the subtotal and the total price, if used VAT, and depending on the layout, with how many cash was payed, and the amount of change that should be returned.

Footer text

The footer text is printed directly underneath the receipt content. It is usually used to thank the customer for their visit and wish them a nice day. To change the text go to C:\Inepro\Text and edit the file footer.txt There are no known restrictions for the footer text.

Receipt properties

The bottom line of the receipt has the receipt information. Like the Operator: 'OPER:0001', Ticket sequencial ID: 'Ticket:0039' and a date time stamp: '201003-15 14:10:01'. The timestamp is in the format: 'yyyy-dd-mm HH:MM:SS'

Page 48

42 - PosPRO

Configuration

PosPRO.ini:

The PosPRO application will store everything in a local database (named PosPRO by default). When the Inepro Back Office Suite with the CashPRO module is used the transactions must be send to the Inepro Back Office Suite database (by default IBOS) and settings, new products, price adjustments etcetera need to be send from the IBOS database to the PosPRO database. The replicationService will handle these tasks.

It will monitor both tables for changes and replicate them according to the intervals specified in the PosPRO.ini.

The service can be stopped and started via Windows Services.

When the services are started manually the replication process can be monitored.

Make sure the Windows Service settings are left, so the replication service will start at Windows startup!

Page 49

Version 7.5.6 - 43

PosPRO.ini

Configuration via the *.ini file

In the ini directory in your PosPRO directory (by default:'C:\Program Files\Inepro\PosPRO\Ini') the 'PosPRO.ini' file should be found: this file can be edited to change the advanced settings in the PosPRO application.

Always create a backup before changes are made in the *.ini files, so the changes made can always revert back to the original *.ini files.

The *.ini file consist of a number of headers and below those header a number of keys that have a value.

For example: [Header] Key=Value

A value of '0' will normally mean 'disabled' and a value of '1' will usually mean 'enabled'.

Page 59

Version 7.5.6 - 53

Sales

Note: Most of these buttons are not visible, because of the intuitive keyboard function, which will hide all the buttons that the employee will not need at that moment. Other configuration settings can also cause buttons to be invisible.

Title bar

On top of the Sales screen you find the title bar with 'PosPRO' and the clock with date and time.

Version

When you click the title bar the PosPRO version text will appear, showing you which version of PosPRO you are using.

Correction Functions

Where people are working; errors will be made, this is unavoidable.

Input mistakes

But mistakes can not be overlooked, so the PosPRO till will block it's functions when an input error has been detected. The following message will be shown:

You need to click on 'OK' to return to the till and then retry the action you needed to perform. Input errors can be greatly reduced by using the intuitive keyboard.

Cancel

Page 61

Version 7.5.6 - 55

Sales

Use 'Clear' to empty the entry field or when you made a mistake and click to wrong payment type (the payment type buttons, will reappear on the screen).

Admin Functions

When the 'Admin' button is pressed the window with the Admin functions opens. You need to have elevated PosPRO rights (Manager) for this function.

Open Drawer

Park Transaction

Park Transaction will allow you to 'park' a transaction. For instance when the customer has forgotten his wallet, and must retrieve it. The employee can then park his transaction, keep the items aside and go on with the other customers until the customer who forgot his wallet returns. He will then pull up his transaction and finish it.

Page 62

56 - PosPRO

User Interface

Recall

Use 'Recall' to search trough the old transactions, and review a transaction from the past. So you can for instance check a claim from a customer.

Product Info

To find more information about a product, find a product, or to look up the article number you can click the button 'Info'. In the information screen that will open you can enter a description, an article number or pick a department and click 'Search' to see all the information about the product.

Return to Main screen

The 'Close' button will take you back to the main screen, where you can chose one of the other modules, log off, take a break or close the application.

Pay Out / Pay In

In some cases it is needed to either add cash to the till or to make an external payment with money from the till. For instance paying for a package that is being delivered or the service of a window-cleaner. These payment can be registered with the 'Pay Out' and 'Pay In' buttons.

Page 63

Version 7.5.6 - 57

Sales

Special functions

The special function will handle printing, VAT functions and revaluing Inepro cards.

Revalue

Revalue allows you to add value to a Inepro user card. A special product with the product code 10000 should be added, the open price check should be ticked. This product should be added to the PosPRO product template of the till, but doesn't have to be part of a PosPRO Product Group or a Presentation Layer. To learn more about creating a product please refer to page .

Eat out / Overwrite all VAT

Eat out will charge the second VAT in stead of the VAT value of the product. This will be used when the government wants you to charge a different VAT for products eaten inside and products eaten outside your establishment.

EFT Print

EFT Print will print out the EFT receipt, this is driven from the EFT device itself, so the layout can not be set or effected by the PosPRO application.

Print wil print out the receipt, or a copy receipt if the receipt has already been printed. See page

for an overview of the available layouts and how to set them.

Price Change

Price Change will overwrite the base price of the article! The employee can set the price as if the product had an open price. There are few circumstances in which you will need this function, if possible either use discounts or 'open price'.

Discounts

You can give a discount by selecting the product, typ in the height of the discount and press '%' to apply a percentile discount or 'Discount' to apply a absolute discount.

The discount will appear below the product on the receipt section (and on the receipt itself)

It is possible to use the PosPRO till to revalue Inepro User Cards. This report will show you an overview of all card revaluations, and the optional revalue bonuses.

Revaluations (Gross) is the total amount that a customer have received as a revaluation on their cards. This amount is split up into the net and a bonus revaluations. The net revaluating amount is the amount that the customer has loaded on his card. But rules can be created that will dictate that when a customer revaluates a x amount, he will get a y bonus amount added to the x amount. These are the bonus revaluations.

Total balance on cards

The total balance on the cards is the total amount of money all the users have on their cards at exactly this moment, according to the system.

Cash Count

In the Cash Count module you are able to digitally perform the cash count procedure. It will show you in the first column the total amount of money received per payment type. In the second column you can declare what the amount counted is per payment type, the difference will be shown in the third column. You are able to accept the differences (to a certain level or even zero-tolerance, specified in the PosPRO.ini) by clicking the booking button. <Back> will leave the module without performing the Cash Count procedure.

It is also possible to hide the first and last column, making it harder for an employee to perpetrate fraud by entering the 'right' numbers. Of course it is possible to give a margin, so the Cash Count procedure can be finished with minor cash differences.

This margin can be set in the PosPRO.ini See page

Pause

When an employee will take a break, he will need to use this option. The employee will log out, but the username will stay fixed, ensuring that only this employee can log in again. In this way they employee can still held responsable for the cash in his cash drawer. To give another employee the possibility to log in, the 'Log off ' option must be chosen

Usage

How can I sell a product?

In this example we will sell 3 Orange Juice and 1 Ham Cheese sandwich:

1. <3> <X> <Orange Juice>

2. <Ham Cheese>

3. <Sub Total>

4. Choose Payment Type (in this example 'On account' is chosen).

As demonstrated; the employee doesn't need to press the Oranje juice button 3 times to sell 3 Orange Juice

An Adjusting Entry

Correction

An adjusting Entry is executed by pressing '<Correction>' then the last Entry will be deleted. So when 100 Orange Juice was sold, but only 10 should be sold:

1. <1> <0> <0> <Orange Juice> (mistake)

2. <Correction>

3. <1> <0> <Orange Juice>

3. <Sub Total>

4. Choose Payment Type (in this example 'On account' is chosen). Now only 10 Orange Juice will be sold.

The adjustment will be visible in the log and on the receipt.

Void

It is also possible to deduct a number of products from the transaction and execute an adjusting entry in that way. This has the advantage that it can also be executed at a later time then at the time the transaction took place (when the error is detected). The payment type is then in fact reloaded, this function must be enabled in the PosPRO. You might need a higher security login to execute this function, it is also possible that this function was not enabled on the PosPRO.

1. <1> <0> <0> <Orange Juice> (mistake)

2. <Void>

3. <9> <0> <Orange Juice>

3. <Sub Total>

4. Choose Payment Type (in this example 'On account' is chosen). Now only 10 Orange Juice will be sold.

Cancel

Cancel will delete the entire transaction

1. <1> <0> <0> <Orange Juice> (mistake)

2. <Cancel>

3. <1> <0> <Orange Juice>

3. <Sub Total>

4. Choose Payment Type (in this example 'On account' is chosen). Now only 10 Orange Juice will be sold

Free amount / Open Price

Before a free amount can be used, this should be registered at the product (for instance by using the Inepro Back Office manager). For a detailed instruction on how this should be done, we refer you to the Inepro Back Office Manager manual.

Select an Open Price.

Enter the price in cents. Confirm. If no price is entered an error will be shown.

A Free Amount or Open Price can be used for one or more products that have a different price each day or every week like a 'Soup of the Day' . To sell the 'Soup of the Day' item twice, (today it's sold at a price of € 5,24), execute this example procedure:

1. <2> <X> <'Soup of the Day'> The price dialog window opens.

2. <5> <2> <4>

3. <Enter / PLU><Sub Total>

4. Choose Payment Type (in this example 'On account' is chosen). Now 2 'Soup of the Day' will be sold

Grand example

As an example we will sell 10 Orange Juice, 1 Ham / Cheese sandwich, and 2 'Soup of the Day' (today only € 5,24):

1. <1> <0> <0> <Orange Juice> (mistake)

2. <Void>

3. <9> <0> <Orange Juice>

3. <Sub Total> (Because the customer wants to make sure that only 10 Orange Juice is registered).

4. <Ham Cheese> (1x Ham Cheese Sandwich)

5. <2> <X> <Soup of the Day> (2x 'Soup of the Day', an open price product (has a price of 0,00)

6. <5> <2> <4> (The price of the Soup of the Day)

User Log

In the User Log the user transactions are shown. The list will be shown per user, which you can choose in the combobox. It is best to summon up the on-screen keyboard again to use text input the pick the user from the combobox as the touchscreen interface might be inefficient for this purpose.
