Add cashiers and set their PINs
Quick answerOn the till open Setup → Cashiers → Add (or in MAJA Books go to MAJA POS → Tills & cashiers → New cashier), type the name, choose the role (Cashier, Supervisor or Manager), set a 4–6 digit PIN and click Save — the tills pick the cashier up on their next sync.
Before you start
- Setup needs the internet: "Setup needs the internet — cashiers, tills and the store live on the server."
- On a new till with no cashier yet, the PIN screen shows "No cashier yet — a manager adds the first one in Setup below." Tap Setup (manager); it opens straight away while the till's MAJA account is signed in with the "manage" right.
Steps (on the till)
- Open Setup: on Home tap the Setup tile (managers only), or on the PIN screen tap Setup (manager).
- In the Cashiers card, click Add.
- Type the Name as it should show on the till and the receipt.
- Choose the Role: - Cashier — sells; no discounts, no refunds - Supervisor — discounts to 10%, refunds, overrides, training - Manager — everything, and Setup
- Optionally type a Discount limit % (blank = the role's) to give this person their own limit.
- Type the PIN (4–6 digits).
- Click Save. The message "Cashier saved" shows and the cashier appears on the PIN screen.
Steps (in MAJA Books)
- Open MAJA Books, click MAJA POS in the left menu, then Tills & cashiers.
- Click New cashier.
- Fill in Name, Role, PIN and, if you like, Own discount limit %.
- Optionally link the cashier to a payroll employee in Employee (payroll link).
- Keep Active — may sign in on a till ticked and click Save.
What MAJA does for you
- Stores the PIN on the server. Each till checks it online and remembers it after the cashier's first online sign-in on that till.
- The role decides what a cashier may do alone. Anything above it (a bigger discount, a refund, a price change, cancelling) asks a supervisor or manager to approve with their PIN.
Good to know
- To change a PIN, open the cashier (pencil icon, or Edit in MAJA Books) and type a new one. Leave it blank to keep the current PIN.
- To stop someone signing in, untick Active instead of deleting them; their past sales keep their name.
- A PIN that is not 4 to 6 digits is refused: "A PIN is 4 to 6 digits".
- A new cashier must sign in once on each till while it is online. Until then the till cannot check their PIN offline.
