Once done you can save your price lists or save and schedule them. 
If you save and schedule your price lists you can: 

Click “No repeat” and organise them for one time only.

This could be all day or for a block of time.

Managing Price Lists

When your price lists are activated, the POS will display a green bar at the top of the screen. It will encourage staff to activate the price lists. 


Note - If your price list is not on the POS, check that you’re online and that your POS has been recently synced with the Back Office.
