Mandatory Payment Confirmation

(Maitre'D 8.00.000.057 and later versions of Maitre'D)

You can force employees to request a confirmation from a manager when accepting a particular media type. For example, you could require that coupons be verified by a manager before servers can accept them.

On the payment screen, the server touches the Coupon button.

The manager then enters his user number and password.

Note: The manager's identity could also have been verified with a card reader or Biometrics device.

The manager can then enter the value of the confirmed payment type.

The payment is validated, and the employee can close the rest of the check to another media type if the coupon did not cover the total.
