card and the total of the order needs to be collected as cash.

4. At the end of the carhop’s shift, the carhop will hand-in the delivery ticket to the manager as cash. The manager needs to enter it during carhop balancing at end of day as cash.

Note: When counting down the carhop keep in mind that any failed My SONIC TM

card redemptions for that carhop might have cash on them as well.

Additional Configuration: Patio Stall

If an outside terminal is used at a Patio Stall, there are 2 ways to treat the order to ensure the correct customer pays for the correct order: Prompt or Non-Prompt.

Prompt: If the terminal is set to prompt, on order total, the terminal displays PAYMENT options, then the customer must select Credit/Debit/Sonic Card. If no option is selected, then the order will be cash, and the total will display until the order is scanned, or until a new order is initiated on that stall. In this configuration, the next customer must ignore the payment display and press the stall button to initiate a new order at the Patio.

Non-Prompt: If the terminal is not set to prompt, the terminal simply displays “Welcome to Sonic” message, rather than prompting the customer with PAYMENT options. In this scenario, the carhop must press the second arrow button and manually pay for the order at the terminal at the time of delivery. This will ensure that the correct customer pays for the correct order.

PAYS at the Drive Thru Window

Feature:

PAYS at the Drive Thru allows a PAYS Terminal to be mounted at the Drive Thru Window, providing the same functionality as a stall for the customer. This document outlines the use of the PAYS at the Drive Thru, as well as a supporting feature: Drive Thru Status Monitor. The Drive Thru Status Monitor is an LCD monitor mounted near the Drive Thru window that allows the user access to both Drive Thru and non-Drive Thru performance statistics, as well as a display of many PAYS status screens.

Requirements:

824 POS Chip Required: 8.5.70+

E2 Management Suite Version Required: 3.7.71+ OMEPS Version Required: 2.3.1+

Other Equipment: PAYS Terminal Mounted at the Drive Thru, 17” Dell Monitor mounted at the DT Window, VGA Extender Kit, Drive Thru Scan.

Pays Status is displayed on the last line of the ticket. By default, the Drive Thru Hypercom Terminal will display the ticket information for the First Column (notated by the “Curr. Displayed” message on that column). To change the ticket being displayed, perform CHANGE – BUMP procedure.

PAYS at the Drive Thru Window will also update the Cash Due line display based on Credit/Gift card use. If an order is paid by Credit Card or the full amount is paid by Gift Card the Cash Due will display 0.00 and should say >>> CARD PAID <<< at the topof the column. If an order is partially paid with Gift Card the Cash Due line will reflect the altered amount due. For example a $10.00 order with $5.00 paid by Gift Card will display $5.00 cash due.

Note: In current 824 POS versions, if a ticket is being recalled (while still in-house), the CHANGE-BUMP procedure will not work.

CHANGE-BUMP Procedure

It may be necessary to change the currently displayed ticket on the Drive Thru PAYS terminal (if a customer pulls forward, for example).

1. Press [Change] on the Drive Thru Check Off 2. Press the appropriate [Order Out] button on the Drive

Hop Now! Configuration

Allows ability to maintain HopOutStartTime and HopOutEndTime at the store level. These are used to determine whether the HOP NOW message should be displayed when an order can be hopped out.

Settings are available in the 824 POS (Navigation: 3-2-3) or E2 Management Suite (Composer > Equipment Settings) as shown below.

824 POS Hop Now Settings Composer Hop Now Settings

Example: Setting Hop Out Start Time to 6:00 and End Time to 22:00 would cause the Hop Now message to appear between 6:00am and 10:00pm but not appear between 10:00pm and 6:00am. For use 24 hours: set Start time to 00:02 and End Time to 00:01.

Note: If the store does not have a Hop Thru door, set both Start and End Times the same and HOP NOW! Message will not appear.
