Two locations

We have a function Hall and a members clubroom.  We want to use a terminal for the hall and an ipad setup for the clubroom.  Can we set each device up with different prices and have separate drawers?

@petemcdVC Yes you can.  There are 2 ways to do this.  

 

1.  Set up the ipad using a device code and then you can pull a report for this device only each day for the sales.  You would then have to set up a copy of each item you sell and say do bottle drink & bottle drink - club.  You could then set 2 different prices and you would have a unified sales reporting as only 1 location but you would be able to separate both  sales easily.

 

2.  The second and best way is to set up a second location under your dashboard.  You can then copy the item catalog to the new location and set up the ipad for that location.  You will choose which location you are using when you log into the ipad.  From your online dashboard you can easily set different prices for each location.  You can also set the price using the ipad or register for each location and it usually prompts if you want to update the price at all locations.  You will have clear reporting for both locations.

 

Option 1 is best if the 2 locations are tightly intertwined, but option 2 is much cleaner from a management point of view if they truly do different things.  Option 1 does is tedious setting up a second set of items, but you can still share the modifiers no matter which way you do it.
