GCR POS — Retail Mode

Operating guide for retail stores: selling from the product grid and the barcode scanner, with dual cash/card pricing.

note

Retail is the POS's default mode. It shares almost every feature with Supermarket mode; the difference is the selling screen: Retail centers on the product grid, Supermarket on the PLU keypad. Administrative features live in the Back Office & Settings manual.

1. Logging in​

PIN screen

Type your PIN and confirm. Clock In/Out punches the clock without opening sales.

2. Main screen​

Retail home

  • Left: the cart with CASH/CARD prices and, in its header, the quick actions Hold / Recall / Clear.
  • Center: catalog categories.
  • Right: the product grid with dual prices; search bar for names or barcode scanning.
  • Bottom: Open Item (no-code item), Operations (discounts/gratuity) and PAY.

3. Selling​

  1. Scan the product or tap it on the grid (use search or categories to find it).
  2. If it has modifiers, the dialog opens to choose them.
  3. Repeat per item; tap a cart line to change quantity or remove it.

Retail cart

note

Scanner: a USB reader works as a keyboard — scanning drops the product straight into the cart with quantity 1; tap the cart line to change the quantity. The top search field accepts name, code or UPC.

Need PLU selling with a multiplier (3 @ 4011), price + category and a large keypad? Those quick keys belong to Supermarket mode: a technician can switch the terminal's mode from the portal (see the Supermarket manual §3).

  • Hold / Recall (cart header) park and recover sales:

Hold Recall

  • Clear empties the cart. Void Sale (via Operations) voids completed same-day sales:

Void

4. Charging​

Payment requires an open cash shift (side menu → Open Shift, with a starting fund). Then PAY:

Payment screen

Tenders: Cash / Credit / EBT Food / EBT$ / Pago EXT / Split Bill, with quick bill buttons. Cash computes the change and offers to print the receipt:

Change Print

5. Everything else​

Identical to Supermarket mode and documented there and in Back Office:

  • Quantity multiplier, Open Item, EBT, Tax Exempt, Last Receipt → Supermarket manual §3-8.
  • Cart discounts and gratuity (Operations button) → Supermarket §9.
  • X Report, Z Report (register closing), register Operations, Back Office (reports, products, inventory, customers, users, attendance) and Settings → Back Office & Settings manual.
