7.10. Working with hold buffers
This chapter informs you about the hold buffer function.
Whether or not you can use this function depends on pro-
gramming and configuration of your MobileXL.
The hold buffer function serves for separate storage of
bookings made by several operators. This function is useful
for example in a bakery, if only one POS system is available
for several users. Another scenario would be the super-
market, where a customer forgot his purse in the car. The
already booked PLUs are stored in a hold buffer so that
other customers can be served until the first returns with
his money.
Hold buffers allow several operators simultaneously to
work at one POS system. The first operator opens a hold
buffer by pressing the respective button. He then signs in
and enters the PLUs. The operator has not yet finalized the
booking. If now a second operator wants to use the POS
system, he presses another hold buffer button, signs in and
enters the PLUs. Both operators can change between these
hold buffers. The operators’ entries remain in the respec-
tive hold buffer until media finalization.
Your Vectron dealer can program and configure the
number of hold buffers and operators according to your
requests.
