Assign and Manage POS Nicknames

Selected reports include a link you can use to assign nicknames to POS systems at your restaurant. These nicknames appear in the POS System drop-down list that also appears on those reports. [Show image.][Hide image.]

You can edit the entries for POS system nicknames and can choose to hide the names of POS systems that your restaurant is not using. This makes it easier to use the list of POS system nicknames because you see only the names of active POS systems. Once a hidden system starts to receive sales, LiveIQ automatically displays the name of that POS system.
