Account Charge Operation

 

SwiftPOS Touch > Account Charge (#90) POS Key

 

Description

 

Used to charge the partial/full sale amount to a Customer/Member's Account at the SwiftPOS Touch terminal.

 

To Be Considered

 

  1. Note : Accounts, Customers, Members and Loyalty Customers are often referred to in the documentation when discussing topics relating to Customers/Patrons of a site.
  2. If required, restricting access to this POS Key can be managed by Clerk Security.
  3. The amount charged to the Customer/Member's Account will only decrease the Account balance when the sales is processed in the SwiftPOS Back Office, that is, when the connection to the SwiftPOS Back Office is re-established. For real time updating of Account balances, see Charge / Redemption.
  4. Automatically allocate payments here when taking payments on Accounts.
  5. If you want to keep tables or Tabs open for more than one day, we would recommend that you use Accounts rather than Tabs or Tables. This way, all the sales are accounted for, and the stock on hand is updated in the SwiftPOS Back Office.  At any time you can print an account summary at the POS that looks very much like a TAB or Table bill with the outstanding amount owing.
