Capturing Courier Tags

If your sale is going to be couriered to the customer rather than being a pickup, you might like to record the courier reference number against this sale. This can be automated so that the staff are prompted to scan the barcode when courier/freight is added to the sale.

If you are capturing courier tags there is a general purpose report under "Reports" to review them.

How to Setup

  1. Create a "Courier" Product if needed
  2. Edit the product definition. In the field "PosCommand" enter the following (tip cut and paste) 
    screen(4html(prompt_general.htm?a=courier))
  3. When this product is sold, the POS will display a screen similar to the following, prompting the user to scan the courier tag
  4. If you have multiple courier or freight type products you can put repeat the above for each product.
  5. As an alternative, you can program a button with the same command "Screen" command as above. If you program a button like this, then the prompting is not automatic but triggered when the button is clicked.
  6. PosGreen version P2264 or higher is required to use this functionality

Configuring the Prompt Screen

Advanced The prompt screen that appears and is shown to the user is a web page. If you wish you can customise this screen with instructions or additional data capture.

  1. Copy the file prompt_general.htm to site_general.htm.
  2. Change the filename in the above command to site_general
  3. Edit the file site_general.htm with the changes you require. The Fieldpine version of this file is generic and may contain lots of extra logic that is unrelated and can be removed.
