The POS settings refer to your main
system that XpressPOS is to deliver the data to. This page
covers the selection of export format required, and the
method that XpressPOS will use to transfer the export file
to the POS/ERP/Accounting system.
-
Select the POS button. When
XpressPOS is first installed, no Export file format has
been set.
-
Select the Change POS button.
If you see an
empty list as shown below, it means that no Export file
format has been installed. Please see the Saberis email with
the download links and the
instructions
for installing the export file format.
If your system
is one of Activant's systems, you will see the list of
available export files below. Users of other systems will
see their system's Export format listed.
WARNING: Falcon users of the Andersen and other
Windows & Doors modules should use the Eagle format. Falcon
users of the 2020 Kitchens module must use the Falcon
format.
-
XpressPOS creates the export file in
the:
C:\Program Files\Saberis\XpressPOS2006\exportfiles\
folder.
The file is then copied or transferred
to its final destination as determined by the settings
in the File Transfer Method section.
(A)
Transfer the export file using standard windows path:
(B)
Transfer the export file using FTP:
If there is
no direct network path to the target server, then use the
XpressPOS FTP feature.
If necessary,
contact your IT department or your POS vendor's support for
the settings. You will need:
-
The
server IP number
-
A user
name with rights to write to the server. Your computer
user name may not have the needed rights.
-
The
password for the user name
-
The
target path on the server. Shown below is the ECS Pro V
4.2 path.
If any
of the information in the four boxes is incorrect, XpressPOS
will throw a FTP error when you try to process an order.
The Enable
UNIX safe names is designed to purge blanks and other
characters that may be invalid for UNIX/LINUX systems. The
typical situation occurs when the 2020 Kitchen Design name
or, Andersen iQ Project name, originates in Windows and
conforms to Windows naming rules. These can include blanks.
