Create a user group with rights to make a sale

First, you must make a new User Group where your minimum rights employees will be placed.
In the back office, navigate to the Settings module and select User groups.

Click New to create a new user group.

From here, you can name the user group and define its levels of access. Ensure POS, Other apps, and API are checked off. This ensures users in this group can access the point of sale.

If needed, you can define additional user rights for specific back office actions in the Main Module section as noted above. Save your user group when you’re done.

Using these steps, you can add the new employee into your new user group.

Granting employees rights to make a sale

Click the Settings module and select Users.

Click on the user that you want to grant access to make a sale. Find the User groups field and select your newly created user group.

Scroll down to the User information section. Be sure to check off boxes next to every store location you’d like that employee to have POS access to.  

Press the Save button to save these changes.

To review those settings, log into the POS as this user and see if they are able to make a test sale.
