Lightspeed Restaurant O-Series: Settings
Updated over a month ago

You can adjust the settings of a location using Lightspeed Restaurant O-Series as the POS.

Editing location settings is only possible with the user role Edit location settings. If your user role does not include this, contact an Administrator user in your account and ask them to provide you access. Learn how to change user roles.

Follow the steps in this article to access the settings page of your POS. Some settings in this article can also be changed for individual channels.

Connection

Use "Pass-Thru Printing"

Activate to allow online orders to be sent straight to your POS printer without requiring manual acceptance. In other words, your staff won't need to manually accept orders.

If the O-Series Pass-Thru register is offline, we will attempt to send orders three additional times. If the final time fails, the order is sent without Pass-Thru Printing activated to ensure you don’t miss any orders.

Please note, to use this feature, corresponding configuration in O Series is required. Please refer to this article for further information.

Site

Choose the O-Series business location. All options are linked to the access profile authorized to your Deliverect account. Reauthorize if you do not find the desired location.

Product sync

Sync only "Online" POS products

Activate to sync only items and categories marked as “Show Online” in O-Series' “Online Products”.

Service charge tax % subtraction

Subtract the inclusive tax amount from the total value of the service charge of an order. Leave the field empty to send the entire service charge amount to the POS. Enter as a number (e.g., for 20% enter 20, for 6.75% enter 6.75).

Delivery fee tax % subtraction

Subtract the inclusive tax amount from the total value of the delivery fee of an order. Leave the field empty to send the entire delivery fee amount to the POS. Enter as a number (e.g., for 20% enter 20, for 6.75% enter 6.75).

When making changes to the following settings, ensure you are editing the correct area. Any changes made to the location will propagate to every online store for this location. Any changes made when editing the settings of an online store will impact only that online store.
