I have the Square Register in Canada with a USB Cash Drawer attached.
I make my screen time out, so employees need to log in with their code to process sales. Every time we tap on the screen to wake it up and place our code, we get the pop-up that the register is connected. Is this necessary to tell us every time? We know it’s connected, and why wouldn't there simply be a small icon on top of the screen like other devices to notify you (ex: the square contactless chip on iPad).
We have to wait for that pop-up to go away to click on the number pad behind it. If we had other items connected would we have to wait for all the pop-ups to go away? When we have an online order we have both pop-ups (Cash Drawer Connected & New Order) and if you click on “View Now” for the order, it doesn't do anything, it just brings you to the checkout page.
Also, the time stamp is always on the top right corner, can we add the date to that? (I kinda miss using an iPad for small details like this, including the keyboard honestly)
