Unsent Checks Warning

Warning messages appear on POS clients when a device with unsent checks is disconnected from the Check and Posting Service (CAPS). The messages appear as a translucent yellow banner at the top of all pages outside a transaction. They do not appear when a transaction is in progress so as not to distract from, or slow down, the order taking process.

After posting a transaction, there is a 30-second delay to enable checks to send before a warning message appears. The warnings make the server aware of an issue so that they can either move the device back into network range or alert a manager that there is a connection issue.

The warning messages show the number of unsent transactions on the device so that when a solution is found, servers can see the number decrease and know that the issue has been resolved. Warnings appear on Android devices and Linux workstations for TSR, QSR, and Bar operations when the device is offline from CAPS. The warning messages appear by default and cannot be switched off.
