2 2) To open a new ticket, click on the green Select Table button.
...
Notes:
The Tickets screen should be blank before running the End of Shift Report.
If you see tickets listed in the Tickets Tab in yellow, these are Credit Card tickets that have not been fully closed. This requires the final step of “Adding the Tip” for this ticket to be completely closed. If there is no additional tip to add, double click the yellow highlighted ticket, select Do Not Process and click OK. Depending on your Credit Card processor, please refer to either our ETS or Openedge Credit Card Transaction manuals for more information on Credit Cards.
...
The Tickets display can vary depending on what columns you want to see. Columns can be removed or added in CMA. To do so, please navigate to System across the top toolbar and choose Areas.
...
Double click on the Area in question and navigate to the Open Tickets tab on the left pane. Once on the Open Tickets tab, select/unselect the column headers that you would like to see.
...
3) Select Select the Area and Table.
...
Notes:
If the table has an open ticket it will display the server and member name. If there is more than 1 ticket on the table it will display the server and how many tickets are open on the table.
The Areas displayed on the left pane can vary depending on individual security rights; if you only work the Beverage Cart you may only see the Beverage Cart Area and may not see any others. If you do not see an Area listed that you should, have the manager check your Employee setup.
- To check an employee’s setup, navigate to the employee’s profile in Manage Employees and select the Areas tab. Any Area that is not selected on the tab will not show in the POS.
...
Each Area must have unique Table Numbers; you cannot have the same table number in two different active Area Layouts. All orders and transactions made on a table will apply to all tables with the same number in addition to other serious problems.
Each sales area can be configured independently with regards to settings for such things as cover requirements, tax & service charge rules, ticket layouts, GL coding, gratuity options, settlement options, etc. Most of which can be controlled within the Areas settings. Please refer to our F&B Areas manual for more information on Areas.

As you are typing the number or name, the screen will display the results. Highlight the member to be assigned to the ticket and hit Enter, or touch the member name, or mouse click on the name to select.
Notes:
If the Contains button is highlighted, the system will search all name columns displayed on the screen that meets the search criteria including First name, Last name, and Member Type.
Example: if you key in John, the system will display all the names that have John in the first or last name such as John, Johnson, Johnnie, etc, or if you key in the name of the Member Type only those members in that type will display. This is the preferred setting.
If the Starts With button is highlighted, the system will only look at the beginning of how the Name is displayed.
Example: if the name is displayed as Aaron, Amy R your search criteria will need be Aaron (not Amy). This is not the preferred setting and often is a support call because
...
a server accidentally hit the Starts With button.
The Hide Dependent button gives user the option to filter out the dependents and spouses from the member display.
You can sort the screen by each column by touching or clicking the column heading.

Employee Time Keeping Actions
Clocking-Out vs Ending a Shift
Clocking Clocking- Out and Ending a Shift have a few differences in the Office system. Clocking- Out simply stops the system from recording time on the employee’s timesheet. When an employee ends their shift, the system is prompted to stop recording sales under the employee, until the employee clocks back in. It is important to remember that an employee cannot end their shift without clocking out as well. When an employee clocks back in for the first time after their last End of Shift, this is when the employee’s next “Shift” begins. During this time, employees have the ability to Clock-out without ending their shift at any time. This is mostly used to allow employees to clock-out for breaks, lunches, etc. without ending their shift. This keeps reporting and timekeeping clean as the End of Shift Report will display all sales and transactions completed during the employee’s “Shift” regardless of how many times they clocked out during their shift. Furthermore, an employee’s timesheet will reflect all instances of when an employee clocked in and out during their shift.
Clocking-Out for Breaks
As As previously mentioned, employees have the ability to clock-out for breaks without ending their shift. However, before an employee can clock-out the Tickets screen must be blank reflecting that the employee has no open tickets.
Employees have 2 options when clocking out for breaks.
1) Select Select Clock Out on the main POS screen.
...
The system will prompt, Would you like to end your shift? Select No.
...
2) Select Select Options on the main POS screen.
...
Select Clock Out and hit Done.
Notes:
Again, either of these options will clock the user out but NOT end their shift. Meaning that the employee can clock back in and continue working on the same shift.
When clocking back in after a break it is important to remember to clock-in under the SAME Job Code that started the Shift. For instance, if I began my shift under the Food & Beverage Management Job Code and I clocked out for lunch, when I clock back in I need to select the Food & Beverage Job Code again for timekeeping to report properly.
End of Shift Processes
Before an employee ends their shift, the Tickets screen must be blank reflecting that the employee has no open tickets. Close all tickets before proceeding.
