This article covers the setups that are required to configure the Till Function buttons for retrieving and processing IBA E-Commerce orders via SmartPOS.

Once the Scheduled Job and the Till Extension Device have been configured, we're almost ready to retrieve and handle the E-Commerce Orders in SmartPOS; the final setup step is configuring these Till Functions.

Prerequisites

  • Minimum Bepoz version of 4.7.0.4 is required for this integration
  • To access Till Function Settings, the applicable Operator privileges will need to be enabled
    • Operator Maintenance 'General' Tab
      • System Setup: "Maintain Till Function Maps" flag

About

  • In order to retrieve & access IBA E-Commerce orders on SmartPOS, an accessible 'Graphical Table' and a set of three other Till Function buttons must be configured in Backoffice

    • This function should be configured to select the Table Group that's been designated for use with the IBA E-Commerce integration. NB: New Transactions cannot be added to this Table Group via SmartPOS

    • Additionally, three (3) iterations of the 'Call External DLL Function' will need to be added which Operators can use to mark an Order as "Ready to Collect", "Collected", or "Delivered"

    • These three Till Function buttons link to a Table Group which is used to create the Marketplace transaction in Bepoz
    • The Till Function buttons can then be used to set the order as 'Ready to Collect', 'Collected', or 'Sent/Delivered'
