POS can accept payments in the foreign currency. This is particularly useful in locations near national borders, where multiple currencies may be accepted.

Before you begin

• Set up POS to accept foreign currency

Steps

1. Take the order and tap the payment screen button.
2. Tap the payment type button that corresponds to the currency that the customer wants to pay with.

   Note: You can't tap a foreign currency payment type button unless the order has an outstanding balance. In other words, you can't accept foreign currency without a purchase.

3. Enter the amount of foreign currency received.

   The amount of foreign currency required to pay off the order is displayed in the lower part of the window.

   Note: Your organisation may have set a limit on the maximum value that can be accepted in a foreign currency transaction.

4. Tap Enter.

   A payment line shows the payment's value in the foreign currency (at the left) and local currency (at the right).

5. Give the customer the change displayed (in local currency).
6. Tap Complete.
