Sale Type Status
These descriptors can be used to categorise your pending sales.
When a pending sale is saved you have the option of applying one of these labels.
These can be used for take-away stores, or businesses that want to highlight pick-up times and delivery details.
Pending Sales Options
This set of tick boxes controls how printing of pending sales is handled:
- Auto Generate Pending Sale Codes - When this option is enabled, Idealpos will automatically generate a Pending Sale Code when creating the Pending Sale.
- Print to Docket Printers - When this option is enabled, Idealpos will send the Pending Sale to the Kitchen Printers after the Pending Sale has been saved. Note that in order for this to happen, the Stock Items added to the Pending Sale must also be configured to print to Kitchen Printers.
- Print as Bill to Receipt Printer - When this option is enabled, any Pending Sales that are printed will also be sent to the Receipt Printer and will be printed in the format of a 'bill'. In order for this option to take effect, the "Print to Docket Printers" option must be enabled.
- Kitchen Print minutes before Expected Time # - When this option is enabled, the Save Pending Sale window will show a "Send to Kitchen" section with two options to either select "# minutes before Expected Time" or "Immediately". The number of minutes configured here will be pre-filled into the "# minutes before Expected Time" option within the Save Pending Sale window. When selecting # minutes before Expected Time on the Pending Sale window, the Kitchen Docket will be printed the number of minutes before the Expected Time. In order for this function to work, you must have "Print to Docket Printers" enabled, Kitchen Printers must be configured/enabled, Idealpos must be running at the time the docket is scheduled to print and the items in the Pending Sale must be configured to print to the Kitchen Printer.
- Kitchen Print minutes before Expected Time # - Support for Ideal Kitchen Monitor
To enable Kitchen Monitor minutes before Expected Time to apply to Ideal Kitchen Monitor print jobs, go to:
Back Office > Setup > POS Terminals > Select a POS Terminal > Modify > POS Settings > User-Defined Options > Create the following User-Defined Option:
