Restrictions

The Associate Management feature applies the following restrictions:

  • Associate information is limited to the local store only. Thus, associate information for a store cannot be searched for from other stores across the enterprise.
  • Associate information on the POS is automatically updated with the data received from the enterprise.
  • By default, only authorized associates, which include managers, can add and delete associates and update associate information.
  • The user roles that are currently signed on to the POS application can only add associates and update the associate information of their subordinates. For example, a manager can only add and update a cashier but cannot add another manager nor update the information of another manager.
  • By default, cashier roles are limited to searching for associates, viewing associate profiles, and changing the password of the associate who is currently signed on.
