Pizza Boxes or Sandwich Bags and will also print to many different types of receipt
printers. Drivers can pickup deliveries and print delivery directions at the
Driver Console. Track every aspect of your business with this product.

Hardware Requirements
Minimum:
- Celeron 1.2GHz w/256 RAM
- Windows 2000 SP2
- SVGA 800x600 256 Color
- Wired Ethernet (If running on a network)
Recommended:
- Pentium4 1.5 GHz w/Windows/XP Professional (512MB RAM+), Vista (32-Bit or 64-Bit)(1GB RAM+)
- 1000 MB/Sec Wired Ethernet (If running on a network)
POS Pizza is very efficient and has a very low overhead, so it runs extremely fast
on most hardware. You should have at least the recommended minimum amount of RAM
that your version of Windows requires in order to have POS Pizza run properly.
POS Pizza needs less than 30 Megs of Hard Disk space for a full install, but as you use
the system the needed space requirement will grow. This is hardly an issue with todays
systems. Since POS Pizza's overhead is very low, you will find that this system is
rock solid and performs very well on most mid sized systems as well as on larger systems.
The nice thing is that POS Pizza does not demand large amounts of hardware in order for it
to operate.
Additional Special Hardware
With POS Pizza that's the nice thing... There are no special hardware requirements
so to speak. Think of them more as options. With POS Pizza you have lots of flexibility
as to what size of POS system you want to install. You can start out with everything, or start small
and build up as you need to. POS Pizza will support any standard printer for receipts such as an InkJet,
Laser, or Dot Matrix. If you have a printer attached to your Windows computer right now, odds are it will
work with POS Pizza. You also have the option of using POS Printers as well, such as the Epson TM-U220.
When printing to a standard printer you can choose to print to 8½ X 11 size pages or 5½ X 8½ size
pages. The POS Printers print to continuous rolls of paper. You can also choose not to print at all,
or only to print at certain stations. POS Pizza is extremely configurable and very scalable. Other optional
components would include Electronic Cash Drawers, Touch-Screen Monitors, Light Pens, Label Printers,
Customer Displays and a Caller ID Unit. When operating in Touch-Screen
Mode no keyboard is needed since POS Pizza has an On-Screen Virtual Keyboard where data entry is required.
Box Labels can be printed on a standard continuous feed printer, a Cognitive Label Printer or a DYMO LabelWriter series
Label Printer.
Networks
POS Pizza is also compatible
with any File-Sharing type network that supports Windows 32-Bit clients. POS Pizza has been tested with Novell Netware
versions up to 6.0, as well as Windows/2000 Server, Solaris x86 Server Running Samba, and on various Windows Peer-To-Peer
Networks. The only thing needed is that all of the machines on your network have FULL access to the directory where POS Pizza
is installed. Again, a network is an option, if you are only running a single cash register station, no network is needed.
If you want to run 2 or more nodes then a network is required. The upside to this is you can easily
share other resources such as printers, so you won't have to buy a printer for each station.
Order Console (Make-Line Stations)
POS Pizza gives you the option of running up to 9 independent
Make-Line screens in your different kitchen areas. These screens will show the
order components that the cooks in that area need to make. Printers attached to
these systems will print the strip tickets for the bags or boxes. POS Pizza comes
with 3 different runtime modules for the Kitchen monitor. There is a 32-bit Windows
module for running on Windows 32-bit platforms as well as a terminal type. The 3rd type
is a Print-Only module that will send orders directly to a printer without using a screen. The
terminal module is a Serial & TCP/IP Server module that is a Windows 32-bit Server that runs
on a Windows system in the background and communicates to a Terminal such as a WYSE-150.
The nice thing with these terminals is they are very affordable and a better option in many cases
than using a PC as your order console. The server can run on any of your existing Windows
machines and can be run along with the main POS terminal so you won't need extra PC's to run the
order console server.
Basic Inventory
POS Pizza tracks the toppings, components, and whole items that are sold on
every transaction. This data is stored in a history file that can be searched by many of
the reports. For example, do you want to know how many ounces of pepperoni you sell
on Thursdays? Not a problem, you can access this data and decide what data to look for, what time
periods to look at, and more... Filter reports by selecting certain date ranges, or a day (or days)
of the week. POS Pizza will also track your Top 20 Selling Items, as well as your least sold items.
You can also track your costs and profits for your inventory items.
Customer Data
POS Pizza will keep track of your customers in an easy to use database. Did
a customer write you a bad check? No problem, mark that customer and they will not be able to pay
by check again. Look up customers by name, street, customer ID, or phone number. View their last 3
orders or even import them as a new order. View their total number of orders, total $$$ spent and more.
Also generate customer reports, such as phone lists, customer mailing labels, marketing, and Top 20 customer
reports by total spent, or by total orders and more. Also give credits to customers or allow customers to
run tabs or have in-house accounts.
Employee Data
POS Pizza also helps you track your employees. Use of the database is an optional setting.
This database keeps track of general employee information as well as tracks hours, mileage, cost, delivery
payment methods and more. Each employee is assigned their own log on ID & Password.
You can control what each employee can do, where they can log in, and what features that they have access to
while logged into the main POS, or you can even choose not to allow them to login at all. This is
useful for Non-Cashier employees who you will want to use the time-clock feature, but not access the order taking
or drivers stations. You can also control the number of orders that drivers can carry on a single delivery,
on a driver-by-driver basis. Generate Employee telephone lists, Payroll reports, Delivery Time Tracking or
Driver Closeout reports. Hours for each employee are tracked by a built-in time clock on the POS stations,
and the driver console. Each Employee entry will store the last 300 time clock transactions for that employee.
Reporting
POS Pizza can also do a host of different reports about your inventory, customers, and
employees. Some of these were briefly mentioned above but the number of reporting options is very
flexible with POS Pizza. Most reports can be filtered so you get only the data you want to see.
Set Date Ranges, Filters for Only certain days of the week, and searches by specific products. There
are also reports for your least sold products, top 20 selling products, Profits, History of Transactions, Daily
Cash/Tax Reports and more. You can also generate Customer Phone Lists, Mailing (Marketing) Labels and Top-20
Reports too. If you have added on the Enhanced Caller ID server, you will also have full reporting of inbound calls,
outbound calls, and call statistics which are very useful for helping you determine your telephone line usage. All
reports can be saved as Stand-Alone Executable Program Files. What this means is that you can save certain
reports and take them home and easily view or print them again without even having POS Pizza installed on the other
computer!

** Effective June 1st, 2010 Summit Computer Networks will charge for telephone tech support.
Due to the unusually high volume of support issues that are not POS Pizza issues (eg. Windows Networking, Windows Printing, Windows Rights) we are now charging for technical
support. We have changed our technical support policy to the one below effective June 01, 2010. Customers will continue to get free support, but in a limited quantity with
initial POS system purchases. Additional hours can be purchased once the free ones have been used up. Please read the policy below to gain a full understanding of what is covered
and what is not covered under our technical support.
Technical Support Policy
Telephone based technical support is available in 3-Hour blocks that can be used for support of POS Pizza. When you initially purchase POS Pizza's base package you will
receive one 3-Hour block of support time free with your purchase. Purchases of Node count upgrades are not eligable for any free hours of tech support. Purchases of
upgrades to the POS system will receive 1 free hour with the purchase. An upgrade is a paid upgrade, and does not include free updates.
What is Not Covered:
Our technical support does NOT cover any issues that are not directly controlled by settings within our software package. Any issues that require
modifying the Windows Registry, Control Panel, Security Settings, Network Settings, or any other "Windows" (or OS) settings are NOT covered by us! System BIOS and/or
hardware settings, Network Adapter Settings, Printer Settings, Printer Driver Settings, Printer dip switch settings, or any other setting that is not controlled from within
the POS Pizza software is NOT covered by our technical support. We do not cover any HARDWARE issues whatsoever.
What *IS* Covered:
Our technical support will cover any and all issues that can be resolved by changing a setting inside of the POS Pizza program. This includes setting up menus, employees, customers,
printing, cash drawers, poll displays, make stations, and other devices from within the POS Pizza software. Any hardware that is going to be used with the system must be properly configured
at the hardware level prior to attempting to make it work with POS Pizza. In other words, any cabling, drivers, and driver settings should be setup and the device tested prior to contacting
Summit's Technical Support.
Technical support will also provide information on recommended hardware for use with POS Pizza as well as other pre-sales questions free of charge.
Technical Support Time Blocks:
Telephone Technical Support Blocks can be purchased at the price of $105 USD for a 3-Hour block of time. These hours can then be used in accordance with the information above for support
of the POS Pizza software. Any un-used time will expire 1 Year after the purchase or issue date. Technical Support Time Blocks are non-transferrable, the support hours may only be used by the
original purchaser of the time blocks. Free Time Blocks are also not transferrable, and may only be used by the original holder of the free hours.
Other Support Methods:
Summit Computer Networks still offers FREE technical support via the support forums and by email. Please note that some issues may not be resolvable by
these means and will need to be resolved by telephone. Issues will not be resolved by very lengthy email's or posts on the forums if they are very involved and are something that should be handled by telephone.
Many issues have already been solved for and by other users on the Support Forums, so please search there first.
Refund/Return Policy
Since our software has a "Trial" period associated with it, there will be Absolutely NO refunds issued once a permanent
license code has been sent, faxed or emailed to the customer (or reseller) from Summit Computer Networks, Inc. For our POS Pizza
customers we can issue a temporary license code that will allow you to effectively evaluate and use the software in a multi-user
(node) environment prior to making any purchases. Please contact us by email, fax,
or by telephone to request your temporary license. Temporary (Trial) licenses can be granted over the phone as long as you have the
business settings information for the program available. Temporary licenses are Only available for our POS Pizza and
Dine-In Module Products.
