Screens (Main Menu / Setup / Store / Other / Screens)
Overview
The Screens Dialog is used for creating custom screens for use at the point of sale. A maximum of 100 screens per store can be created. Each screen can have up to 72 single sized buttons. Size, position, appearance, functionality and security are all configurable. Screens can be unique or uniform across stores.
Rule of Thumb - Use as many screens as you need, but no more than you need. Use colors to group like buttons for easy identification. Keep font sizes consistent for easier readability.
