The password will be reset to the default one. Please make sure the end user changes the password once they log in.

Q4: A customer used a prepaid credit card in a transaction. The balance of the prepaid card could not cover the entire transaction value so Sound Payments took a partial payment (Approved Lesser Amount). Now, when I try to add the remaining balance to another credit card, it won’t let me. The box turns red every time I enter the balance. What can I do to complete the sale?

This is a known bug in RMH POS. For some reason, when you enter the remaining balance into the credit card field, it thinks you are over-tendering (giving more money than the value of the transaction). The only tender type that is allowed to over-tender is Cash.

...

Q5: A customer wants to use multiple credit cards to pay for a transaction. When I enter the second amount into the credit card field, it turns red. What’s going on? How do I take multiple credit card payments?

This is the same bug as seen in Question #3 the question above. For some strange reason, RMH POS thinks you are over-tendering on the second credit card. You must enter a slightly lesser amount in the second Credit Card field and the remaining balance in the Cash field. Review the answer from abovethe previous question.

Q6: I’m trying to ring up an employee and I cannot find them in the system. How can I give them the employee discount?

First, only managers can give employee discounts. Cashiers can do the lookup and select an employee customer, but a manager must scan the items to receive a discount.

If you cannot find an employee in RMH, it may be because they are so new, their employee customer record has not been put into RMH. In that case, search for the account N101The proper way to lookup an employee is to type in their first name or last name (NOT BOTH). Then click the binoculars icon. This will look in the local store database for the employee.

If the employee is not found, click the Lookup Online button (at the bottom right of the window). This will look in the HQ database for the employee.

If the employee is still not there, repeat the lookup process using the name N101. This user represents a generic employee that is so new, we haven’t entered them into the system.

If none of these lookup mechanisms work, contact the IT Help Desk.

Q7: I made a bad cash drop. I entered $2000.00 instead of $200.00. How do I fix it?

...

Normally, to unlock the POS station, the user who locked it needs to type in their password. However, there is an override code to unlock the POS station. Contact the store manager or Foresight Automation for the override code.

...

Q11: A transaction was tendered using the wrong tender type (cash instead of credit card). How can I re-tender the transaction using the right tender type?

Unfortunately, you cannot change the tender type once the transaction is completed. You must re-scan all the items and select the right tender type. Also, you must get a manager to perform a return on the original transaction (with the wrong tender type).

For future reference, cashiers should wait until they receive the cash, count it, then enter the amount. Performing work fast is important, but performing work accurately is more important.

Q12: The RMH POS window start position is messed up so I cannot see the application window or RMH POS has an error message about the screen resolution being null. How do I correct this?

RMH POS stores its preferences in the file C:\ProgramData\RetailHero\RetailHero.preferences. If that file is messed up, it’s best to remove it and re-launch RMH POS. Then, a new file will be generated with the default preferences.
