POS Access Control
Granular per-employee access control for Point of Sale features
Overview
POS Access Control gives you fine-grained control over which POS features each employee can access. With 11 configurable permissions, managers can restrict sensitive operations like price editing, discounts, payments, and session closing on a per-employee basis — directly from the employee form.
Key Features
Numpad Controls
Control access to the numpad, quantity input, and the +/- button. Prevent unauthorized changes to order line quantities.
Price & Discount Controls
Restrict who can edit prices and apply discounts. Protect your margins by limiting these sensitive operations.
Order Management
Control the ability to remove order lines, delete orders, and process refunds. Keep order integrity intact.
Payment Controls
Restrict access to the payment screen and customer selection. Only authorized employees can process transactions.
Session Management
Control who can close the POS session. Prevent accidental or unauthorized session closures.
Per-Employee Configuration
Each permission is configured individually per employee via a dedicated "POS Access" tab on the employee form.

How It Works
Simple Setup, Real-Time Enforcement
Configuration is done through the employee form, and access rules are enforced in real-time within the POS interface:
- Configure: Open an employee record and navigate to the "POS Access" tab
- Set Permissions: Toggle each access control checkbox as needed
- Enforce: When the employee logs into POS, restricted features are automatically hidden or disabled
- No restart needed: Changes take effect the next time the employee logs into the POS session
