The Settings menu in the backoffice gathers the settings specific to each location. This page tours every section. Unless noted, everything applies to restaurant mode and retail mode alike.
Some sections work in two steps: Save stores your changes in a draft, then Publish all changes publishes the location’s entire draft. A Saved changes ready to publish badge in the global header reminds you; after publishing, it turns into Up to date. It’s the same principle as for the menu.

General

Settings → General holds the location’s details:
  • Location name — the name of the place, shown on receipts and on the register’s sign-in screen. Required.
  • Timezone — the timezone, in IANA format (for example Europe/Paris).
  • Address, ZIP / Postal, City, Country — the address.
Click Save changes to save, or Discard to cancel your edits. These changes apply directly, without publishing.
backoffice, Settings → General — location form with the Operating mode and Currency & locale cards below
Two read-only cards complete the page:
  • Operating mode — the location’s Restaurant or Retail badge. The mode is chosen at creation and cannot be changed — see the two modes.
  • Currency & locale — the currency and display format, fixed at creation so receipts and accounting stay consistent. Contact support to change them.

Receipts

Settings → Receipts defines the legal identity printed on every receipt:
  • Legal business name — the registered business name.
  • Address — the address printed under the business name (multiple lines allowed).
  • Fiscal identifiers — an ordered list of legal identifiers, each a label and a value. Add one row per identifier your country requires: in Morocco the IF, the ICE and the patente; in France the SIRET, the VAT number and the RCS. They print under the business name, one line each, in the order you set — at least one is required.
  • Footer text — the text at the bottom of the receipt, optional: a thank-you message, opening hours…
Click Save, then Publish all changes to make the new identity available to the registers.
backoffice, Settings → Receipts — filled identity form and publication control in the global header
The identity is frozen onto each sale at payment time: if you change it later, reprints of older sales keep the original identity. For what prints day to day, see Receipts and printing.

Close of day

Settings → Close of day configures how the business day opens and closes on the main register:
  • Default starting float — the opening float suggested by default at start of day. Staff can adjust it on the spot if the drawer starts differently — see Start of day.
  • Day cutoff — the cutoff hour: sales before this hour count toward the previous business day. Pick your quietest hour — 04:00 suits most venues open past midnight.
  • Require a drawer count to close — when the switch is on, a manual close must include the blind count by denominations. Automatic closes (a forgotten day, sealed the next morning) always remain uncounted.
  • Require a note on large variances — when the switch is on, the manager must explain any drawer difference beyond the threshold.
  • Variance threshold — the amount beyond which the note is required, over or short. Visible when the previous switch is on.
Click Save, then Publish all changes: the main register applies the new settings on its next sync. The full closing walkthrough is in Close of day.
backoffice, Settings → Close of day — form with the default starting float, the Day cutoff and the two switches

Printers

In the menu, the section is called Printers & KDS in restaurant mode and Receipt printers in retail mode; the page itself is titled Printers. It lists the store’s thermal printers.

Adding a printer

1

Open the form

Click Add printer.
2

Describe the printer

  • Name — a clear name, for example “Counter receipt”. - IP address — the printer’s static IP address on the store network (recommended). - MAC address — as a fallback if you don’t have the IP; it’s on the printer’s self-test sheet. One of the two fields is required. - Paper width — 80 mm (most common) or 58 mm. - Model — the model, for example TM-m30III.
3

Confirm

Click Add printer. The printer appears in the table.
Give every printer a fixed IP address (set on the printer itself or with a DHCP reservation in your router). If the address changes, the register can no longer find the printer.

Choosing where each document prints

The Receipts column chooses the receipt printer. Click Set default and the button turns into Default. Click again to remove the role. In restaurant mode, choose the kitchen printer on each preparation station, not in this table.
backoffice, Settings → Printers — printer table with the Receipts column and an active Default button
Edit changes a printer. Delete removes it unless a preparation station still uses it; reassign that station first. Once the printers are declared, the main register picks up the list — see Receipts and printing for the register side and the test print.

Preparation stations (restaurant mode)

Settings → Preparation stations controls where each item goes when staff tap Send, and how the team receives it: on a kitchen screen, on paper or out loud. The page lists your stations on the left; the selected station opens on the right for editing.
1

Add a station

Click Add station and give it a clear name, such as “Hot kitchen”, “Bar” or “Pass”. You can create it empty and assign items later.
2

Choose the delivery mode

  • Screen — the ticket shows on the kitchen screen, nothing prints.
  • Screen, paper as backup — the ticket shows, and prints on the backup printer if no screen has received it within 15 s.
  • Screen + paper — both, on every send.
  • Printer — paper only, no screen.
  • Verbal handoff — the team calls it out, no printer needed.
  • No preparation — the item is already ready to serve or hand over.
3

Set the timer (screen modes)

Amber after and Red after set, in minutes from the send to the kitchen, when the ticket header changes colour on the screen (8 and 15 by default). Red must come after amber.
4

Assign items and registers

Search for and tick the station’s items; the count stays visible even with a large catalogue. An item may belong to several stations. Keep All registers for the usual setup, or select the registers whose sends should reach this station.
Click Save to apply your changes, or Cancel to go back to the saved version.

Which screens show a station

For a station in a screen mode, the Shown on section lists the kitchen screens that follow it, with their status (online or offline). That choice is not made in the backoffice but on the screen itself, from its menu — see The kitchen screen. A screen-mode station that no screen shows is flagged in amber in the list: in Screen mode its tickets reach no one; in paper-as-backup or screen + paper mode, only paper comes out.

Activate, deactivate, check

A new station is active as soon as it is created. The switch at the top of the selected station deactivates or reactivates it. Deactivating an item’s last active station blocks its send. An empty station is allowed. However, the Some items cannot be sent yet alert must be gone before service: every item you intend to sell must belong to at least one active station. An unassigned item blocks sending instead of disappearing without an alert. You can also assign or move an item from its editor, in the Preparation stations section. The item library shows the associated stations on every row and clearly flags Unassigned items.

Devices

Settings → Devices shows the main register, its status and the paired devices, and is where you claim or release devices — see Devices.

Payment methods

Settings → Payment methods defines what the register offers at checkout: cash, card, meal vouchers, cheque, bank transfer… with their names, their order and their face values. This section has its own page — see Payment methods.

Integrations

Integrations → Reservations connects your reservations provider (for example EatNow) to the location. The steps are described in Tables and reservations.

Coming soon

  • Hours — opening hours, announced in the menu but not yet available.
