terminal is offline, an error message will be displayed, and the upgrade
process will be terminated. In the multi-terminal mode, SmartPOS upgrade
includes the following steps:

SmartPOS checks if any product updates are available. If updates are
available, SmartPOS displays
a warning message that all terminals in the network will be upgraded. 3. After
the user agrees to upgrade SmartPOS, the terminal at which the upgrade process
was
initiated, checks if all terminals in the network are online. 4. The upgrade
process is first started at the terminal at which it was initiated, and then
at other
terminals in the network. 5. After upgrade, all terminals in the network are
restarted.

If you have initiated the upgrade process at one terminal, and some other user
has started checking for updates at another terminal at the same time,
SmartPOS will not be upgraded at the second terminal automatically. After
SmartPOS detects product updates, the user will need to start the upgrade
process manually.
HOUSE ACCOUNTS IN SMARTPOS
SmartPOS supports the house account method of payment (MOP). A house account
is a line of credit issued by a retailer to store customers. This MOP allows
the retailer to complete a transaction without actually accepting the payment
at the moment when the transaction is made. Instead, customers can pay the
owed balance later. You can perform the following operations with house
accounts in SmartPOS:
Configure House Account MOP Pay with House Accounts Perform Split Tender
Transactions Refund to House Accounts
Configure House Account MOP
To configure settings for the house account MOP in SmartPOS:
1. On the MOPs tab, select House Acc and press the edit button. 2. Select the
Enabled check box. The House Acc button will be displayed on the cashier’s
screen in
the Other MOP group. 3. Select the Favorite check box to move the House Acc
button to the top of the MOP list on the
cashier’s screen. 4. In the Host list, select what solution must process house
account transactions:
o C-Store Office: House account transactions must be processed according to
the standard logic based on loyalty programs in CStoreOffice®.
o Custom: House account transactions must be processed by a third-party
solution according to the business rules and policies set up for this
solution. In the URL field, specify a path to the third-party server to which
requests for processing house account transactions must be sent.
If the URL field is left blank, SmartPOS automatically fails over to the
CStoreOffice® transaction processing mode.

accounts.
To perform a split tender transaction using a house account:
1. On the cashier’s screen, add items to the item queue in a usual way. 2.
