Title: Multi Users on the same terminal
Post by: Helitrooper on March 30, 2013, 09:23:56 am

Can more than 1 user log onto a terminal at the same time ?

The only way I can see to log a user on, is to go back to the main menu, log the current user out and then the second user can enter their PIN. I was in my local pub the other day and they had a system of magnetic keys to access the terminal, each user touched the key on the terminal and could then use it on their own login account. Is this a possibility on Samba ?

Only one user at a time can be signed on.

The is an Auto Logout option under Terminal Settings that will logout the user when they close a ticket.

Many users use magnetic swipe cards or bar coded employee cards. SambaPos should also work with programmable RFID cards and USB readers.
