Setting Up a CR Department

You need to configure a cash register department (CR department) to which items that you offer in the menu will belong.

In order to function properly, every cash register must have at least one department. Cash register departments are used to combine sales data in the register into logical groups to make tracking and reporting sales data easier. Departments are used to determine if the tax should be charged when items are sold.

The default CR department for QwickServe items in CStoreOffice® is #100 QwickServe. You can use this department or configure your own department.

This section covers only basic CR department settings required for QwickServe setup. For more details, see Petrosoft Cloud Help > CStoreOffice® > Price Book > CR Departments.

To set up a CR department, you must complete the following tasks:

1. Set up a CR department for QwickServe items
2. Configure taxation settings for the CR department
