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.
Where: MAJA POS → Setup → Cashiers → Add, or MAJA Books → MAJA POS → Tills & cashiers → New cashierWho: A manager cashier on the till (with the till's MAJA account holding the MAJA POS "manage" right), or a MAJA Books user with the MAJA POS "manage" right

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)

  1. Open Setup: on Home tap the Setup tile (managers only), or on the PIN screen tap Setup (manager).
  2. In the Cashiers card, click Add.
  3. Type the Name as it should show on the till and the receipt.
  4. Choose the Role: - Cashier — sells; no discounts, no refunds - Supervisor — discounts to 10%, refunds, overrides, training - Manager — everything, and Setup
  5. Optionally type a Discount limit % (blank = the role's) to give this person their own limit.
  6. Type the PIN (4–6 digits).
  7. Click Save. The message "Cashier saved" shows and the cashier appears on the PIN screen.

Steps (in MAJA Books)

  1. Open MAJA Books, click MAJA POS in the left menu, then Tills & cashiers.
  2. Click New cashier.
  3. Fill in Name, Role, PIN and, if you like, Own discount limit %.
  4. Optionally link the cashier to a payroll employee in Employee (payroll link).
  5. 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.
