Cashiers vs Users

 
In this tutorial:
A cashier refers to an individual ringing up or creating an order using the point of sales. The goal is to track orders related to specific employees. This feature is entirely optional and will not be used if no cashiers are created.
A Manager or Vendor refers to the specific type of user of Decaf PoS and the permissions related to each.
 

Creating a cashier

 
In order to create a cashier:
  1. Login as an Admin user and go to Settings > Cashiers
  1. Click on Add Cashier
Here you will see a list of already created Cashiers. If this is empty there are none configured meaning you will not be required to input a Pin in oder to create a new order on the POS

In summary:
  • A Vendor is a kind of service account that allows the user to only create new orders or look at the orders and NFT discounts
  • A Manager has slightly expanded permissions allowing them to do product management.
  • An Admin has access to all functions of the Decaf PoS so be careful with this account. It can change the funds destination wallet of the PoS.
