Tender Type is inactive |
Select this option if the tender type is no longer in use in your store. If you make a tender type inactive, cashiers can no longer select it at the register, including for returns. However, it will still be available for reports and journaled receipts. If you no longer use a tender type, the best practice is to make it inactive instead of deleting it. If you delete a tender type it breaks the relationship with historical transactions in your store database. |
Maximum Amount |
Enter the maximum amount, e.g., $1,000, of the tender type that the store will accept. If you set a maximum amount, cashiers will not be able to tender sales with tender amounts higher than the limit specified. Leave the Maximum Amount as $0.00 if you do not want to set a limit. |

Enter denominations if you plan to use the change Calculator on the Tender screen at the POS. |
Display Order |

Round to Value |
The amount to which you want Store Manager and POS to round up the value of this tender type, e.g., if pennies are not used in your region but nickels are, enter $0.05. |
Prevent Cashier overtendering |
Select this option to prevent cashiers from tendering amounts higher than the transaction total. This option is automatically selected for Credit Card tender types because overtendering on credit card is not permitted by credit card companies. |
POP Cash Drawer |

Require signature |
Select this option if you require a customer signature for this tender type, either on the credit card signature line on the receipt or via a signature capture device. |
Allow multiple entries |
Select this option if you want to permit cashiers to accept partial payment of the transaction total on two or more of the same tender type, e.g., splitting the transaction amount between two Visa cards. |
