Problem: Several time intervals are configured for the QwickServe menu activated at the location. However, the red exclamation mark with the undefined prompt is displayed in the Active column.

QwickServe Curbside
One of the possible reasons is that the CR shift was accepted and edited manually before the QwickServe Curbside shift was received in CStoreOffice®.
To resolve this issue:
- Undo the shift received from the cash register.
- Accept both shifts: from the cash register and from QwickServe Curbside.
- Do manual changes, if needed.
When you work with the QwickServe Curbside solution, two shifts are sent to CStoreOffice®:
- From the cash register
- From QwickServe Curbside
When both shifts have the same shift number and date, they are merged automatically by CStoreOffice® and accepted successfully.
For preventing the loss of manual changes, manually edited shifts cannot be merged with other shifts in CStoreOffice®.
In case the CR shift is edited manually in CStoreOffice®, the corresponding QwickServe Curbside shifts cannot be merged with such CR shift automatically and, therefore, cannot be accepted in CStoreOffice®. That is why when you work with the QwickServe Curbside solution, all manual changes to the shifts should be performed in CStoreOffice® after both shifts are accepted.
For more information about accepting shifts in CStoreOffice®, see Reviewing and Accepting Shifts.
Reports
Question: Why are QwickServe orders displayed in the shift report instead of items in the Items row of the QwickServe department?
Answer: When the shift was accepted before the QwickServe orders were loaded into CStoreOffice®, the items sold in QwickServe are displayed as the QwickServe orders in the shift report > c) PLU Sales Report > Department Sales section. To troubleshoot this issue, reaccept all shifts where you see QwickServe orders instead of items.
For more information on how to reaccept the shift, see Undoing Incorrectly Accepted Shifts.
If you use the Verifone Ruby 2 cash register, mind that you can only see your inventory in CStoreOffice®, but not on POS.
While in CStoreOffice®, you can use the following inventory forms and reports:
If you noticed that your sales data is tracked improperly in shift reports, for example, some sales data is missing or have data and/or time mismatch, make sure the date and time on your cash register match the date and time on the QwickServe devices.
Linking Ingredients to Price Book items
The FIFA (first in – first out) principle works in this case. The items from the first vendor are used until they are available. If the item is no longer available, system starts using items of the second vendor.
They must have the same type of measure – weight, volume or unit/piece.
You cannot edit the unit of measurement of an ingredient until it has PB items linked to it, because the measure type must stay the same.
