Providing free meals to employees

Chapter 28. Providing free meals to employees

Revision History

Free meals are provided for employees on workdays during specific time periods. To receive a free meal, employees must present their IDs.

At the beginning of each workday, a business day must be opened in the division where free meals are provided for employees. Business days must be also closed daily. Business days can be opened and closed in Tillypad XL Manager or in Administrator mode. Tillypad XL POS can be started on the same workstation as Tillypad XL Manager.

If the business day is not open, an error message will be sent to the printer.
