Checkout - Retricted Category

Hi, we are Square Terminal users and have a separate category in the Checkout for alcohol sales. Some staff are not permitted to sell alcohol, so we are trying to find a way to reflect this in Checkout, whether by restricting an item/category or add a permission to an item/category. Thanks for your help.

Hi, @AMV thanks for your post and welcome to the Seller Community. 

 

I had a look at our Custom Permission Sets to see if we have a method of restricting certain employees from selling particular items/categories but it looks like that would be a feature request at the moment. 

 

The workaround I can think of would be to create a designated location for the specific employee and only have items that they are allowed to see available at that location, so for example: 

 

Location A > All items including alcohol > all employees have access except this individual 

Location B > All items excluding alcohol > access for the individual 

 

It's definitely longwinded but if you don't have too many items, it may be manageable to set up. 

 

Let me know what you think or if you have any questions!
