Here you have to select the payment method for payments of the type e-purse.

E-purse article

The financial (fictive) article on which payments of the type e-purse are counter-entered in case the e-purse is devalued. This is required because otherwise both, the purchase of and the payment with e-purse amounts would be registered as revenues.

Allow negative balance on e-purse

The section Spending credit (3), allows you to set up the default settings for spending credit processing.

Spending credit article

The financial (fictive) article on which payments of the type spending credit are counter-entered. This is required because otherwise both, the purchase of and the payment with purchase credit would be registered as revenues.

VAT code (0%)

When using spending credit as a payment method VAT is never charged. As in Recreatex it is possible to create several 0% VAT codes, here you can determine which 0% VAT code should be linked to the spending credit.

The section Default economic sector per customer type allows you to specify the default economic sector for each customer type: individual, doctor, location, group, company and school. When you select a customer type in the tab Details on the customer address card and save the record, the default economic sector will be automatically filled in in the tab Finances.

Black list

In the tab Black list you can determine the parameters for fingerprint identification and blacklist configuration.

en_bas_beh_0048.bmp

To be able to work with fingerprint identification, the option Activate fingerprint identification has to be selected.

In the section Fingerprint registration (1) select the fingers that will be used for identification by default. You can also indicate whether the identification should happen by means of 3 fingers instead of 1 by selecting the option Consolidation (3 fingerprints instead of 1).

Interval control periods for black list

Indicates, how detailed the graphical visualisation of the black list control period should be. Current options are per 5, 6, 10, 15, 30 or 60 minutes.

A control period for the blacklist can be specified on the article card, under the tab POS. The control period interval then determines how detailed the time frames are visualized in the tab Graphic.

Server name fingerprint identification

Fill in the name or IP address of the server.

If this field is empty, the local PC is used as the identification server. In such case, the software key has to be installed on this PC, or you can use a MSO300 reader with a built-in identification license.

Min. identification score (standard 3500)

Indicates the minimum score needed to be identified as a person on the blacklist. 3500 is the standard score. The score can be raised/lowered in order to increase/decrease the access conditions. Advantages and disadvantages always have to be well considered.

Rebuild fingerprint database

Click this button to rebuild the database on the server specified above. This is a work database for the ActiveMKit_Matcher component (for identification), containing all fingerprint templates of the persons that are currently on the blacklist.

This database will first be completely emptied and then all templates of the blacklist will be added one by one. It is important to execute this functionality at least once, before each new installation. You may do so before or after the registration of the first fingerprints. Afterwards, the database does not have to be rebuilt again since the registration or deletion of fingerprints is treated incrementally.

If you encounter problems, you can always rebuild the fingerprint database. Make sure that no POS sales with fingerprint registration are done during the rebuild. You can avoid this by temporarily deactivating the fingerprint identification.

In the section Import/export black list (2) you can determine to which location you want to export an overview of the blacklist, as well as to which location you want to import a certain blacklist.

Import file black list

Specify the location (path) of the blacklist file you want to import.

Export file black list

Specify the location (path including the file name) to which you want to export the blacklist file.

Import black list

Click this button to import the blacklist from the specified location.

Export black list

Click this button to export the blacklist to the specified location.

Web

The tab Web allows you to determine whether a Web ID and/or password have to be created automatically after saving the new customer's record.

Parameters_Addresses_Web.png

You can define the structure of the WebID and/or password using the on-screen legend.

If you choose for example to create the Web ID following the structure NNDDMMJJJJ"web" the Web ID will be composed of the first two letters of the name (in capitals), followed by the first two digits of the birth date, the first two digits of the birth month and the four digits of the birth year, followed by the word "web".

So if your customer's name is Bert Janssen who was born on 12/01/1964, his automatically created Web ID will be JA12011964web.

Automatically created Web ID and password are available on the customer address card, under the tab Web in the fields Web user name and Web password.

Various

In the tab Various, you can define some extra parameters that will influence the customer configuration in Recreatex.

Parameters_PointOfSale.png

There are 2 possibilities to link the users to points of sale:

Each login user can only use 1 of the possibilities. If you select the user for option 1 and then try to select the same user for option 2, the user will automatically be deselected for option 1.

  1. Ask point of sale (tab) - select which users will see the list of points of sale when logging in to Recreatex and are allowed to pick a point of sale from the list.

    When a user logs in, a list of points of sale will be shown depending on the division to which the user has logged in.

  2. Point of sale dependent on work station (tab) - select users for which the correct point of sale will automatically be started when they log into a particular workstation.

    You create the link between point of sale and the workstation by entering the name of the workstation in the field Workstation (in the module Sales > Settings > Points of sale > tab Various ).

See also Rights per division.

Article remaining amount after refund of warranty

Here you can determine on which (financial) article possible remaining amounts of warranties will be recorded after the refund.

Format code

In the section Structure article code (1), you can define a default code structure for all new articles that are created within Recreatex.

The structure can be a combination of article group name, automatically generated number and free text in the desired order.

When a new article is created, the article code will automatically be generated after the selection of an article group.

In the example below the code should consist of the first 3 characters of the article group name, followed by a hyphen and an automatically calculated order number (taking into account previous articles created with this structure): AAA-NNN = 100-001

Parameters_Articles2.png
