Point of Sale Solution Back Office Services
Description
What's in this article?
Like a product, services can be added to your inventory. Once a service is added to your inventory, that service can then be associated with an employee who can perform it. Before setting up your services, we suggest creating any applicable categories, tax options, and printers so that they are ready to be assigned to the service.
Adding a service or add-on to a service
Services are added like items through the item management process. You can also add an add-on to a service if it has been set up as a modifier.
To add a service
- In the Point of Sale Solution Back Office, select Basic Settings > Items.
- From the Services tab, click Add new.
- In the New service details section, enter a Service name.
- (Optional) Provide a description for the new service, a SKU, and/or UPC/barcode.
- Begin typing the category you wish to assign the service to and then select the Category from the dropdown list.
- (Optional) In the Price information section, select a Printer type from the dropdown list.
- If the service is taxable, select a Tax option from the dropdown list and enable Taxable item. If the service isn't taxable, keep Taxable item disabled. Enable Accept EBT if you want to enable it as a payment option.
- If you would like to charge for the service, enter a Price. If you would like to be able to set the price at the point of sale, enable Price in store.
- (Optional) enter the Amount of time for the service and select the Duration measurement (minutes, hours, days, etc.) from the dropdown list.
- If a resource should be associated with the service, you can select it from the Choose resources dropdown list. Learn more about assigning resources.

Assign a service to an employee
Once you've created a service in your inventory, you will need to link it to an employee that is able to perform the service. For example, you might have a salon that provides hair and nail services, but your employees either perform hair services or nail services.

Edit or delete a service
A service that has been created can be edited or deleted.
