Step 1 of 6

Start with the retail sample

  1. On first launch choose Retail store. The example shop is Main Street General Store.
  2. Sign in with the sample cashier PIN 3333. These PINs and products are demonstration data; replace them before real use.

Step 2 of 6

Scan an item and choose a size

  1. On Register, scan the barcode on a Classic Tee White in size M. A keyboard-style scanner types the code and presses Enter.
  2. Tap Slim Jeans, choose size 32, then Add to order. Check the item names and sizes in the ticket.

Apply a promotion and review the total

  1. Open the discount controls, enter SAVE10 and apply it. The sample gives 10% off the order.
  2. Check the discount, item tax and amount due before pressing Pay. Your own catalog and tax settings determine live totals.

Record payment and review the receipt

  1. The video uses the sample test card provider, which does not move money. Select Card and complete the demo payment.
  2. For live trading, configure your supported card workflow first. A standalone terminal payment is processed on that terminal, then its approval reference is recorded in the register.
  3. Check the receipt and return to a new order. Paid stocked items reduce inventory.

Handle a return with a manager

  1. Open Orders and select the sale. Open the refund controls, choose the returned quantity and enter a reason.
  2. A cashier needs manager approval. Enter the sample manager PIN 2222 in the approval dialog.
  3. Confirm the refund result and check the stock quantity. In the video the test provider handles the refund; verify your live provider's behavior before accepting returns.
