In addition to assigning user privileges for individual applications (Dotypos and Warehouse), you can also safeguard the cash register (tablet) environment. These options are available in the so-called Dotypos launcher, which is the default environment for running the cash register.
In its preferences you may define what applications the users will be able to run. These applications will be displayed on the desktop after switching on the cash register. And access to other applications can be PIN protected. The same way, these settings can also be PIN protected so the crew cannot change it. However, the PIN protection applies to all users (employees) working with the cash register.
