2. IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

NEW FUNCTIONALITY AVAILABLE FROM VERSION 4.4.3

In Device Preferences, you can configure the app's settings in one place, avoiding individual configurations on each device.

The first time you log into the app, you will be prompted to create a profile in the back-office, which will be created and will maintain the existing settings.

1. CONFIGURE DEVICE PREFERENCES

1. Access the Revo XEF back-office.

2. Go to Settings / DEVICE PREFERENCES.

3. Select the options:

BASIC

• Name: Add a name.

• Device Type: Select iPad or iPhone.

  If no cashier is added, the app will prompt you to select one during payment; this action will be temporary.

• Printer: Choose a printer from the dropdown menu, or use the back-office default.

• Language: Select the language.

• Profile: Allows special configurations by device. You must create the profiles in the back-office first, more information here.

MENU

• Quick Entry: When working with Menus in REVO, you can choose between two ways to create them:

  • Quick Entry Enabled : Simplifies the entry by allowing you to enter the desired number of menus at once.
    

    For example: You have a table with three customers and they all order the menu of the day. With quick entry enabled, it would go like this:

    • Select the menu of the day.
    • Select 3 on the numeric screen.
    • Order the dishes and drinks for all three customers simultaneously.
    • Send the order to the kitchen and bar.
      
      

  • Quick Entry Disabled : Requires ordering each menu individually.

    For example: For the same three customers:

    • Select the menu of the day.
    • Order the dishes and drinks for each customer one by one.
    • Send the order to the kitchen and bar, which will show individually on the ticket.
      
      

• Simplified View: If enabled , only the menu name and total price are shown. For example: 3 Menus of the day £10 £30.
  If disabled , all the dishes included in the menu are displayed below its name.

  The view option only affects the display in the app, not on the bill. On the bill, only menu dishes with a price supplement are printed.

• Menu size: Choose the most suitable size for the menus.

• Close orders when paid: Enable this option to automatically close paid orders.

MARKETING

• Forms: With REVO, you can easily create and customise marketing forms to get your customers' feedback before closing an order. For example, did you enjoy the food? Rate from 1 to 10.

  You can create the forms from the back-office and select them in the preferences so that they appear when closing an order. Here is a guide to create these forms.

• Show form on Revo DISPLAY: Enable this option to show the form on Revo DISPLAY instead of on the iPad.

2. CONSIDERATIONS TO KEEP IN MIND

• A cashier or printer associated with a profile cannot be deleted. First, modify the profile and select another cashier/printer.

• The first profile in the back-office cannot be deleted, ensuring that there is always one available.

• Starting from version 4.4.3, it is mandatory to select a profile on the device to continue working.

• If the app is closed, the profile remains. You only need to reselect it if it is disassociated from the device from the back-office.

• If the employee does not have the privilege to access the preferences, the profile will remain. They can only select and create a profile if they access it for the first time after updating.

• The created profile can be added to the devices from the devices section. More information here.

• The changes you make to the preferences from the app will be temporary.

  • If you make modifications, a message will appear:

    
    
    

  • If they do not match those in the back-office, the alert symbol will appear

    
    
    

    • If you tap on a message will appear:

      • No, synchronise: Resynchronises the configuration from the back-office.
      • Yes, keep changes: Keeps the changes made in the app.
