Installation Notes
- Once the monitoring service is running it will process any file that is added to the specified directory. (It monitors the directory for changes and detects the addition of new files)
- There needs to be an Active Licenced terminal, Not necessarily a POS Touch terminal. (The process reads the File in and converts it to a AJL file that would normally be returned from a SwiftPOS Touch terminal, then Sales processing handles it in the same manner as any other AJL that is sent from the SwiftPOS Touch terminals).
- The process is enabled in End Of Day settings for each Location Group (Venue). Any Location in the Location Group (Venue) with the Franchise Types set to Crust Export will be Exported during End of Day. Once sales are exported, the transactions in the EJTable are marked as sent.

This feature is activated when selected as part of the End of Day process.
Configuration:
- The first 3 characters of the Location name are used as the first 3 characters in the file names created. (E.g.. Restaurant - REST)

Import Option for Hungry Jacks Interface
Configuration:
- Add Hungry Jacks' 3 character Product Code to the Host ID field for all Hungry Jacks Products.
- Against the Hungary Jack Location assign the Store ID to the Host Store ID field, Select Hungry Jacks as the Import Export Type then select the Settings button to configure the Import settings.
- In the Franchise Settings screen select the Folder in which the HJ .PR file will be placed, the Clerk/Staff Member that will be attributed to the sales as well as the terminal the sales will be generated
against.
The Process:
- The file is supplied by HJ and placed in the specified directory. The SwiftPOS Service Monitor application will monitor new files added to the specified path. The file will lookup the Product by searching the HostID field and return relevant Product information, adding the Product to a sales file for processing by Sales Processing.
- If Products are not found it will be ignored. With full debug enabled all Product lines, both successfully and unsuccessfully written will be logged. When completed if the file is imported with out error it will be renamed and moved to the sub folder for processed files, if errors occur the file will be renamed and moved the Failed sub folder. If no matching StoreID is found the file will be renamed to _PR and details logged on all occasions.
- This interface will import the supplied .PR file (via FTP) from Hungry Jacks for processing into SwiftPOS.
- The import process will create sales transactions for the records contained in the file. The files Product code will be mapped to the SwiftPOS Product code through the Supplier Code setup for the nominated Supplier created in SwiftPOS. If the Supplier Code is not found then the SwiftPOS Product code will be used. Once the automated import process is completed the file will be moved to a "Processed" subdirectory of the nominated .PR file. Settings will be required to set the .PR file location, Supplier Code, Location and Terminal that will be used in creating the sales.
