Information
Automatic sign out is a security feature that prevents a manager or other pop-up
employee from walking away from a UWS and remaining signed in. A pop-up
employee is signed out automatically when:
❑ there is no active transaction or no keys are being pressed; and
❑ no activity has taken place for a set period of time.
If Suspend/Resume is enabled, a pop-up employee is signed out automatically
when:
❑ no keys are being pressed; and
❑ no activity has taken place for a set period of time.
Any keystroke (except [Shift]) resets the timer that monitors periods of inactivity.
Manual sign out is a time-saving feature that lets stay-down employees pick up and
service total checks quickly. It’s designed for employees that post a high level of
transactions in short periods of time, such as cashiers and bartenders.
Example
Samantha is a pop-up employee. After she service totals her guest check, she is
automatically signed out.
Jorge is a cashier and a stay-down employee. After he service totals a check, he
stays signed in. He can continue to pick up checks and service total them without
signing in each time. When ready to sign out, Jorge completes the current
transaction and presses [Transaction Cancel].
