MEGATHREAD New POS (post-cutover)

[employee 626]

My store isn’t the best at following direction like that LMFAO. Probably CRC electronics recycling.

I don't think there was an official communication about keyboards but I could be wrong.

But you absolutely can remove your keyboards. we’ve had ours thrown away since 2020 and the extra space is perfect.

I knew we didn't use them since new POS came out as it's completely touchscreen but I wasn't sure if it was needed in the diagnostics process at some point.

if your NEW system needed keyboards then your new system would’ve included them lol.

I figured that but with supply chain shortages I wanted to make sure we most certainly didn't need them for ANYTHING at all with the POS system

Do the EloPOS Pack (small black square) registers beep when you scan an item that has a protection plan? If so where does the sound come from? My store doesn't beep currently. It did beep on the old beige ones.

Can we have our PML "wall" mount them with the mounting bracket to the metal wall? It's the red wall behind the NCR line display in the attached image. Our NGSCO registers have it "wall" mounted to the inside of the cabinet with extra parts to keep it locked in. It doesn't use the mounting bracket to attach it. You just unscrew the part and pull it toward you and it comes out.

If you took this photo I would remove it. Careful with showing your store number here

Reddit had it when I googled to find it

Post void returns are coming

NGSCO needs a way to put it in no cash mode. Sometimes they go down when I scan my wallet barcode with my debit card selected but cash back off.
To prevent stores from abusing it I have a few Ideas

• Code needed to enter to get it to be cashless.
  • Either from the chatbot, calling the CSC, or putting a request in that is about the cash part
• Make it a lead and above option
• Make whoever they trust have the option just like the GSA numbers as well as leads and above

What did they remove from the receipt because they print out at hyper speed now?

New printer. My store had the beige ones on the lanes and black ones (just without a check reader) at SCO and they print out at the same speed as the new black ones do.

Also, does your receipt printer ever print this status sheet out?

Hope we get new myCheckouts soon. I can only open one app at a time, when I go back to another app it already cleared its state from memory. 😭

I hate to say this but i think that MCO is dead unless you have a small store with no room for POS. One store has like 8-12 SCOs but 6 CLs….

MCO would be perfect. but for Greatlands / Supers no real point tbh.

The limit of POS systems is 31. Everything that can be used to purchase is considered one. Even pharmacy.

MCO is also useful for a network outage. It connects to LTE

I use MyCheckout every day. There are many things we don't have in stock, so I give the guest free delivery. Only thing I see is maybe adding it to the registers instead.

Yeah i know it’s planned to go on the POS at SOME point but idk why we haven't gotten it yet. (or exchanges tbh)

really? this feels wrong?

We have
13 SCOS
4 Pharm (maybe 3)
3 GS
2 SBUX
1 optical
13 CLs
2 Tech
don't forget like the 5 MCOs.

Yeah thats not really accurate lol.

I'm honestly genuinely curious to see what the new POS Team has been developing for the PAST YEAR.

It might be 34. Workbench has the amount. It’s 30 something for sure. Whatever it was it was a random enough number to make me confused and count all my registers

yeahhh nooo. 33 for the front lanes ONLY

you forget there are POS systems at supers dedicaddd to things like 2 @Delis and 2@bakery’s portraits studio. 2@photo finishing its 33 just for the lanes. not the store.

I swear it says everything counted towards the 33. Unless I read it wrong OR they only count deli, bakery and portrait/photo (if it still exists) as another one.
They could also just be weighing the items and printing a barcode and tag. It might not even be running Target POS

How about a different MyDay notification sound for register alerts. SCO needs money would be a different sound than the regular registers because the NGSCO constantly go off.

Also

How about the ability to see the SCOs money status from MyDay. It would be in a new section on the homepage. Same thing from regular registers except it keeps the request on the top based on how long and what the TM requested.

I think this is a broader issue that HQ needs to address... across the board, different things need different sounds. Off the top of my head, the IRs are the only thing that got a new sound. Everything else is still pixie dust.

I think a simpler solution would be to have more persistent notifications. MyDay clears the notification tab every time you look at it so the history goes away. I wish it would stick around as long as you were logged in.

i’ve been saying this for a year haha

No because sometimes I open the banking app when no one is using the SCO to check if they need a refill before they alert us
