Configuring Cash Register Express
Encryption Key Setup
Cash Register Express requires a unique encryption key to be setup for each computer. This key is
used to store sensitive credit card information safely. Because of security compliance regulations, an
encryption key must be unique per store.
When you start the program without a key you will see the following prompt:
***Important*** - All customers not using “Express Manual” processing will be required to setup a
key.
The user must type in a password that will be used to generate a new encryption key. This same
password must be entered into the program on every computer in the store. If you type in a password
that doesn’t match the password you used on your other computers, the program will let you know
it’s wrong and prompt for the password again.
