Quick Keys
Flax Enterprise Configuration App · Process guide
Quick keys are buttons that add products to the cart in one tap, organized in groups and subgroups. They are configured under Quick Keys in the left menu, at Company level and optionally per location and the entries under it.

Quick Keys: display mode and levels
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Name | The level being configured |
| Configuration | The Company row shows how many groups are configured. Any other row with no quick keys of its own shows Using configuration from Company level |
| Configure | Opens the quick key editor for that level |
A level with no configuration of its own uses the Company level's quick keys. Configure the Company level once to cover every location, and only configure a lower level where it needs different quick keys.
Quick key editor
When a level is inheriting, the editor shows Using value from Company level at the top.
