Opening procedures involve logging in to your POS software, synchronizing the POS data with the data in AdminHQ, and then cashing in. Closing procedures are the reverse steps, cashing out, synchronizing data, and then logging out.

Let’s walk through these steps in detail.

Opening procedures

  1. Log in to the FSS POS.

  2. Open the FSS POS program.

  3. Enter your username and password and click LOGIN.

  4. Click SYNC.

  5. On the synchronization screen, select the option that applies to you.

  6. SYNC DATA: this is an incremental sync. It looks for any data in AdminHQ that changed since the last sync (including student pictures) and copies it into the POS program. This is the most common type of syncing and typically the main option chosen.

  7. Force Download All Data: this sync takes all the data in AdminHQ and copies it into the POS program. If you think data is missing or not getting updated, this option is a good way to refresh all the data.

  8. Force Download Pictures: this sync copies all the student pictures from AdminHQ into the POS system. This option is helpful if you are doing a mass import of new student pictures.

  9. Click CASH IN.

  10. In the Opening column, enter the amount of money you have in the drawer.  You can enter the total amount into any field or add specific amounts into the applicable denomination fields. If you’d rather enter counts for denominations, click the Counts tab and enter the counts.

  11. Click MENU, and then click Cash Out.

  12. In the Closing column, enter the amount of money you have in the drawer. You can enter the total amount into any field or add specific amounts into the applicable denomination fields.

  13. Click OK.

  14. Click SYNC.

  15. On the synchronization screen, select the option that applies to you.

  16. SYNC DATA: this is an incremental sync. It looks for any data in AdminHQ that changed since the last sync (including student pictures) and copies it into the POS program. This is the most common type of syncing and typically the main option chosen.

  17. Force Download All Data: this sync takes all the data in AdminHQ and copies it into the POS program. If you think data is missing or not getting updated, this option is a good way to refresh all the data.
