Key Code

  • This is the user's login number for the POS device.

    • If mag cards are enabled, this is also the number associated with the user's mag card.

  • Key codes are site-specific and can range from 0 - 9999 for the site.

    • Each key code must be unique to the site. (No duplicates within a site).

    • The same key code can be used at different sites. Example: Key code 1234 can be used at site 1 for Bob, at site 2 for Maneet, at site 3 for Rosa. 

  • If a user is assigned to more than one site, they may need different key codes at each site if the same number is not available at both. 

  • Click the Key Code field to activate it and enter a key code.


  • If a duplicate key code is entered for a site, an error message will appear. Enter key code unique to the site. 

Edit User

  • To find a user name, scroll through the list or use the Search field:

  • Click the edit (pencil) icon to edit user information.

  • Click Save on this screen, then Save Changes on the Users screen to save. 

Deploy Users

  • After all changes have been made (adds, edits, disables), select the users to be deployed and click Deploy Users to deploy the changes to the POS devices. 

    • Note: If a user has been disabled, the key code previously assigned to them becomes a null value. The change must be deployed to the devices so that the previous key code cannot be used on the POS devices. 

Operation

  • Enter the user's key code for the site to log in to the application.

    • REQUIRED: Site, key code, job and pay rate must be configured for a user to log in to the app.

  • If the key code is invalid (user has been disabled or entry is incorrect), an error message will display.
