💵Checkout Settings
Block Barcode Scan Only
When ON, disables item scanning via the barcode scanner and displays a “Sorry, this kiosk is currently closed” message when no items are available for checkout.
Turn this on if you use stations — it allows Order Mode to close automatically when your daypart ends, without needing to close the whole app.
Prompt User Name
When ON, Kiosk Zero prompts the customer to enter their name before completing an order. The name then appears on the printed receipt for identification.
When OFF, an auto-generated order ID (1–99) is used on the receipt instead.
Enable Customer Notes
When ON, Kiosk Zero allows the customer to add notes to their orders before finishing checkout.
Day Parts
Allows you to adjust whether all or specific Day Parts to turned on, which controls which items display during different periods of your day. Day Parts are configured in Creator and then assigned to individual items.
- Auto — When selected will display the Day Parts by Station automatically. This is based on what Day Parts on configured for each item in Creator. This is the recommend one to select.
- Manual — When choosing which Day Parts to display manually, you are choosing to only display those specific Day Part times. Anything outside of that will not show.
- For Example, only choosing ‘Lunch’ will only display lunch items on Stations when that time period begins and then when it ends the station will close and not move onto the next Day Part.
