Employee Login/Logout Mode in QSR

Description: If you are having to use your PIN too many times to place an order in QSR, it is possible to change the Employee Login/Logout mode to cut down the number of logins required. 


  1. To begin, log in to the terminal and navigate to Admin > Config Tools > System + Station Settings.
  2. Then select the Station Settings button at the top of the screen. Here, select the POS you would like to change the setting for. Then repeat the steps in this article for each system listed on this page.

  3. In the list of settings, the Mode option is located about halfway down and states "What mode would you like this station to follow?"
    • 2 = Employee Login/Logout Mode
    • 1 = Prompt for Employee before every order (default setting)
    • 0 = Normal **DO NOT USE THIS**

Additional Notes about Changing the Mode

Changing to 2 will drastically reduce the number of logins required to place an order. The key difference between these two modes is that when logged in, it will not ask you to log in again unless logging out first. You can tell it is enabled by looking at the main screen. The top left button will say Emp Log Out if enabled.image-2 (1).png
