Check before saving¶
- Store: name, alias, warehouse, printer.
- Table: physical name and alias.
- Currency: primary status, approved rate, effective time.
- Discount: name/code, rate or fixed treatment, dates, approval rule.
- Payment method: name, alias, correct tender classification.
- Room mapping: product group and matching Frontdesk charge type.
- Menu item: category, display order, status, and Menu Price — the menu price is what the customer pays, not the product's base price.
- Workstation menu: workstation, menu, sort order, and Active.
- Item to store rule: type, match value, store, priority, and Active.
- App settings: company name, TIN, address, phone, email, website, logo, theme, date and number format, product code prefix, Use Menu Products, Enable Manual Billing, Enable Price Change (Billing), Enable Cash-drawer, Enable Bill Splitting by Group (Frontdesk), Enable Training Mode, remote print server address, and the integration key.
- Bill settings: printer name, receipt style, and the note printed on bills.
- Report settings: which of TIN, address, phone, email, and website appear, and the footer note.
- VSDC settings: device serial number, and Initialize Device.
High-risk controls¶
- 100% discount creates a complimentary bill when it covers the full bill.
- Never rename a payment method to represent another tender.
- Never create a duplicate store, table, product, or side as a workaround.
- Never share or capture an integration key or a workstation key.
- Enable Training Mode marks everything recorded while it is on. Bills created in training mode are flagged in the Bills list. Turn it off before real trading, and never use it to correct a live transaction.
- A menu price change applies to every workstation using that menu.
- Test KOT, Billing, room posting, payment, report, or printing—whichever the change affects.
Ownership¶
Routine product work belongs to the Storekeeper/configuration owner. Supervisors handle only approved emergencies. Permission never replaces an approved business request.
