Unlock Permissions in Idealpos

When using this function, all permissions that cannot be used by certain clerks will be unlocked, allowing them to perform any function in the presence of a supervisor.

 

There are two ways to use the Unlock Permissions function which are using an on-screen button or swiping an admin card.

 

Using a Button

Generally the button is programmed on the Admin page and is hidden from most staff access. A password can be created on the button, and will only allow staff who have permission to access and use the functionality.

 

Using an Admin Card

When using a card the details are programmed for each individual POS terminal. The same card can be issued for multiple terminals, or each terminal can require a specific card to allow the function. Using this functionality requires the use of a Magstripe Reader and programmed cards.

 

If required, you are able to set the function to be used for one transaction only via the Yes/No Option "Unlock Permissions for One Transaction only".
See Unlock Permission Settings for more information.
