Setting up tills
Create tills and till operators for a bazaar: name the till places, authorize members and guests.
Before anyone can scan on bazaar day, you create the tills and decide who may work at them. You do both under Cash register setup – reachable from Manage bazaar in the Preparation phase.
Creating tills
A till is a checkout place in your hall – a table with a device on it.
- Under Tills, tap Add till.
- Enter a till name your helpers will recognise (e.g. “Till entrance” or “Till 2”).
- Your entry is saved automatically – the status goes from Saving to Saved.
Each name may only appear once; otherwise you see “Name already taken”. Remove deletes a till again – you have to confirm that.
Authorizing till operators
Under Till operators you define who may scan. The rule is simple: operators can open and scan at any till – the permission covers the whole bazaar, not a single place.
Tap Add person. There are two ways:
| Way | When to use it |
|---|---|
| Members | The person already belongs to your organization. Find them in the list and tap Add. |
| By email | External helpers. Enter the email address and tap Add. |
Authorized people then appear marked as Member or Guest.
Withdrawing access
Tap Remove next to a person. After confirming “Remove …‘s access?” they can no longer scan at the tills.
What you need on bazaar day
- One device per till – phone, tablet or laptop with a browser.
- Internet once when each till is first opened. After that the till works offline too.
- Optionally a handheld scanner (keyboard emulation) instead of the device camera.
