Menu Security Tab
The Menu Security Tab only becomes visible if the Employee security system has been turned on. See: The
next topic for more information on how to do this.
In addition to this, if the Point of Sale module is not installed, all items relating to POS functions will be hidden
from this screen, so the screen you see may differ from the one shown here.
Select the desired employee level for each of the actions listed. It is advisable to start off with the default
values and then modify them only when you are familiar with the system.
Specific Actions that need an explanation include:
Field
Default
Setting
Comment
Unattended Mode after XX
Minutes
15 Minutes
After a period of inactivity, the system will log out whoever is
currently logged in and then present the password entry screen. A
valid password must be entered before any further work can be
done. This is so that if the control desk is left unattended,
unauthorised persons can not use the system. This is the same
process as pressing the Unattended button.
Number of Transactions
viewable
10
When viewing a list of transactions rung up for a day, it is unwise
to view every single transaction. Otherwise a staff member would
be able to count the transaction totals to work out the current
balance in the cash drawer. This field allows you to limit the list of
transactions to only the last (say 10) rung up.
POS Password Required for
Every Transaction
False
This option will force a password to be re-entered every time a
Point Of Sale transaction is done. This is so you can accurately
track which staff member does each transaction. It is not
recommended to use this option unless it is actually needed,
otherwise staff will soon tire of entering their password constantly.
Password always required if
program access is greater
than or equal to
Office
Attendant
If a program requires (Say) an Office Attendant level employee,
then the system will require an Office Attendant level or higher
password to be entered, even if a high level employee is already
logged in.
This system enables users to log in once and perform low level
work without having to re-enter their password all the time.
However, if a high level program is required, then a password must
be entered, regardless of the level of the employee currently
logged in.
