The configuration of the device will be done in 5 steps:

Step 1:

Start by choosing the mode of use of your Iphone or Ipad

If not, and if you have only one cash register, choose "Single cash register".

Press the "Next" button,

Then confirm your choice by choosing "Yes" in the discussion box that will be displayed

Step 2:

The store(s) that you will have previously created from your administrator interface from the web will be proposed to you during this step.

Note that:

Only the list of stores pre-configured by your Precision Systems account administrators will be offered

These settings can be changed by the administrator after installation.

If you are adding a new store or outlet from the administration interface, scroll down to refresh the list.

To do this, click on Add Printer

Note that:

 Each user, cashier or manager, has a 6-digit access code that allows them to securely access their session, so any action taken on Precision Systems remains the sole responsibility of the authenticated user.

 User profiles and access codes are pre-configured by Precision Systems administrators.

 It is strongly recommended that all Precision Systems users be made aware of the danger of disclosing the access code.
