Editing buttons within Menu > Functions on POS

Posted on by Christoski

Hi, long time viewer, first time poster.

Was wandering if anyone could help me. within RMS Store Operations POS I have been asked to sort some buttons within Menu > Functions.
Basically at the moment, there are some discount buttons that do not work, simple 5%, 10% etc. I need to get these working as well as add some more buttons, but cannot find the location to edit these within Store Manager.
I have looked within Database > Register > Keyboards but in there is the buttons for the Custom menu.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Chris

Thanks for the response.

I already know how to create macros to make discount buttons, but thanks for the article. Will have a read through in case I am missing anything.

We are using a few 3rd party add-ins, but none of which should touch the keyboards.

Thanks

Hello Christoski,

Thank you for the update.

I was not able to locate the discounts in your screenshot from the Functions menu. It does not appear in the list of functions when using the functions function that I described in my last post.

Are you using 3rd party add-ins?

The first article I had posted describes a method for creating discount macros. Please examine.

You can assign macros to the touchscreen buttons.

Let us know if you have any other questions.

Re: Editing buttons within Menu > Functions on POS

Thanks for the quick response, I appreciate it.

As you can see in the screenshot below. When you click on Functions (from previous screenshot) you can get to this screen showing the 6 possible discount options (along with other buttons), however none of these work. Instead of performing a 5% line discount it tries to find an item using the lookup code - "5.00%" and therefore erroring with an "Item not Found"

Is there a way to remove these or edit them so they work?

Sorry if I am not being very clear.

Thanks

Hello Christoski,

Thank you for the update.

It is not possible to edit the existing Functions button on the touchscreen keyboard.

You can, however, create a new button with all the existing functions and edit them to your liking.

1. Log into Store Operations Manager

2. Click on Database | Registers | keyboards

3. Click on New

4. Click on Functions

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Hi

Thanks for your response, but I believe I may not have been clear. Below you can see a print screen of the till.

When you click Menu on the left you get the five options appear, what I want to edit is the options after you click the Function Button.

Using the guides you provided I can only edit what's under the custom button.

Many thanks
