Overview

The Touch Screen Point of Sale (TSPOS) system allows you to add a Touch Screen point of sale terminal at any station.

As of now, the TSPOS is not replacing the current text based, sectional-organized Cash Register. Instead, we are offering this new POS solution as an alternate version.


Access

You can use the small arrow to switch between the old Cash Register view and the new Touch POS.

  3. This is the work screen that you will use to set up your Touch Screen Point of Sale.

  4. If you are currently using the legacy, text-based POS, that organizes products under “sections” in the Cash Register, you will use those same products to insert into the Point of Sale.

  5. You should have all of the products that you intend to display on the TSPOS already created in the Product Table with all data fields entered.

  6. DaySmart Recreation allows you to create multiple layouts that allow you the flexibility in sorting your POS products into unique Sections.


Creating a “New Layout”

A Layout consists of multiple “pages” each of which contains "Categories" and possibly "Subcategories" full of products.

Click the arrow to learn more

  1. In the upper right hand corner, press the "Edit Items" button in order to view the Edit Modal.

  2. Insert your cursor in the box that says “New Layout” and replace it with the name of your Layout. For example, you may want separate Layouts for your Front Desk, Pro Shop or Restaurant if you have completely different products and rarely overlap between ringing up these types of products.

  3. Finally, we’ll save these settings by clicking the blue “Done” button.

  4. Once you have created your layouts you can build upon these by adding Pages.


Creating a "New Page"

Click the arrow to learn more

A page allows you to organize a group of products together using categories or subcategories. If you are an existing DaySmart Recreation customer and have been using the old Cash Register, you may choose to use the same Headers as your Pages now.
