Gilbarco Passport Settings

In the Gilbarco Passport section, you can configure settings for Gilbarco Passport cash registers.

To access the Gilbarco Passport settings:

  1. At the top left of the Cash Register form, select Advanced.
  2. From the CR brand list, select Gilbarco.
  3. From the CR model list, select Passport.

You can configure the following settings:

  • CR IP: The IP address of the cash register.
  • Tax strategy: The tax strategy settings to be applied at the cash register. For more details, see Configuring Taxation Strategy for Cash Register.
  • CR login: The user name to log in to the cash register.
  • CR password: The password to log in to the cash register.
  • NAXML primary report period: The primary reporting period for the cash register:
  • Shift
  • Day
  • Cashier Report
  • The period must be the same as the period value configured at the POS. Otherwise, movement reports will not be accepted by CStoreOffice®.

  • CR vendor model version: The cash register firmware version value. CStoreOffice® determines the CR firmware during the shifts parsing process. In case no shifts were parsed, the system sends the newer CR firmware version by default. If you need to send the older CR firmware version, enter this version value into this field.
  • CR store location ID: The store identifier assigned to the site.
  • CR Sales Restrict Code: The code used to identify age, tender and other restrictions for sales.
  • CR POS code modifier (Base Item): 0 by default. This code is used for the item parameters default set in the Price Book download.
  • CR POS code modifier name (Base Item): Empty by default. This code is used for the item parameters default setin the Price Book download.
  • Process House Account Details: Enable this option to allow parsing of house accounts data from shifts in the back-office system. The house accounts data becomes available in sales transaction and customer reports.
  • House Account Details from Transactions: Enable this option to allow parsing detailed house accounts information from the transaction data (PJR) at the cash register in addition to general shifts data. With this option enabled, CStoreOffice® will be able to get additional information about taxes and refunds.
  • Wipe out CR Promotions on next sync: Enable this option to delete promotions at the cash register and upload promotions from the CStoreOffice® Price Book instead. This option can be helpful if the promotion data at the cash register and in CStoreOffice® are out of sync and you need to synchronize this data. When the promotions data is updated at the cash register, CStoreOffice® automatically disables this option in the cash register settings.
  • Fuel loyalty: The method of fuel loyalty calculation to be applied to fuel items:
  • Apply fuel loyalty
  • Ignore fuel loyalty
  • Include fuel loyalty into fuel sales
  • Allow Price modifier: Enable this option to allow sending Price Modifier promotions to the cash register.
  • Allow removal of inactive in PB/deleted items from CR: Enable this option to remove from the cash register the items that have been deleted or marked as inactive in the Price Book. The items are removed when Price Book updates are sent to the cash register.
  • Send full item description in update: Enable this option to send the item description instead of the item receipt CR description to the cash register with Price Book updates.
  • Calculate net sales: Enable this option to calculate and display net sales in the Departments Sales section of shift reports.
  • Pay points for cash reconciliation: Enable this option to use paypoints data for cash reconciliation. With this option enabled, CStoreOffice® will process the cash register reports to get paypoints data and present more detailed information on cash reconciliation in the Cash Reconciliation > Daily Data form. As a result, you will be able to trace every cashier's activities at each cash register separately.

    If the Pay points for cash reconciliation option is disabled, the cash register reports are not parsed for paypoints data and cash is reconciled by shifts. For more information about reconciling shifts by pay points, see Cash Reconciliation by Paypoints.
