Work around for not being able to generate Speed ID on old POS?

[Kvothe]

As of this AM, the old POS no longer generates Speed IDs. Is there a work around with a barcode generator so we can use it on the self-checkout machines? If so, how? A how to do-it-yourself for dummies would be great.

I hate punching in my TM # and PIN in front of guests.

you can make speed id on new pos. go to menu option on the upper right side.

Yes, but last time I tried that Speed ID doesn’t work on SCOs.

you probably generate a barcode for ur TM number and another for pin and then have to scan both. But im not sure how probably on ur phone and then print it

 

[Planosss]

Lol

Last I read, there was no workaround for Speed ID's unfortunately

 

[DBZ]

The workaround is to type in your TM# and PIN. It'll be ok. I haven't made a speed ID in like a year

This happened today? I was able to make one on the old POS at the service desk.

Yup. I'll try again tomorrow.

Then you don't wear gloves to wipe down the SCOs.

Haven't been able to get this to work.

Ah! OK! I was able to do it on Sunday in our store when being trained on SCO. I just was walked up to the GS desk and showed how to print it after getting my numbers for SCO and GS.

I wore gloves for one or two days. That was too much for me. Why are you still wearing them? My store quit wiping after each guest about a month ago. No one cares about that any more. Now I wipe it when it is dirty or if someone has been coughing. I've always done that though, even before covid.

is the option completely gone? or can you still get to it by entering ™ number then hitting k3 or whatever and entering pin and shift end time? as opposed to hitting it before entering ™ number

It worked this morning. So just a glitch yesterday, I suppose. Still would like a work around for the day when old POS goes away.

Much faster to use Speed ID on SCOs, and guests can’t steal your number.

I was wondering what could of changed so fast! LOL... The speed id on the new pos just does the TMID, which is fine... I don't know mine by heart yet, so I have to pull out my notebook everytime, LOL

by the time classic goes away the speed ids you generate on new pos will work on sco so it's literally a moot issue

 

[DBZ]

And really its bad that the old speed IDs do you full log in. That means if you don't have it attached to you, anyone can use your numbers. A guy in AP used mine once. He saw my angry face. He is damn lucky I didn't go straight to his boss.

Are you sure we work for the same company? Lol. I'll believe it when I see it.

Just make a mad dash to create a new Speed ID to deactivate the old lost one.

this. if you ever lose one creating a new one deactivates the old. you can also scan your ™ ID card to get to the pin screen (at least on old POS, idk about new)

I haven't used a speed iD in ages. I always just type in my digits lightning fast.

I challenge you to a race with my Speed ID.
