Configuring Automatic Check Firing (Autofire)

1. Select the revenue center, click Setup, and then click RVC Parameters.
2. Click the Autofire tab, and then configure the fields as described in the following table:

   Table 33-3 Automatic Check Firing Fields

   Fields and Options	Description
   (Optional) Autofire Employee	To allow a specific employee to become the owner of all checks, including those placed using Transaction Services after the orders fire, select a workstation operator, and then click OK. If you select an Autofire Employee, all sales totals post to the designated workstation operator and the checks appear under the Autofire Employee in the Open Check Report. If you do not select an Autofire Employee, the check operator remains the owner of the check after the order fires.
   Autofire Workstation	Select the workstation from which the orders fire and print. The application uses this value to determine the order output devices and workstation printers to use when an order fires.
   Default Autofire Tender/Media	Select a service total that workstation operators can use with Autofire. You can assign any service total. Oracle recommends configuring a separate service total for automatic order firing to allow workstation operators to identify the designated touchscreen button. Creating a Service Total to End the Current Round of Checks contains information about configuring a service total.
   Backup Autofire Delay (Mins)	Enter the amount of time (in minutes) that the autofire workstation must try to fire the orders. After the Backup Autofire Delay time elapses, if the autofire workstation is unsuccessful at firing the order, the workstation at which the check was originally created tries to fire the order. If both workstations fail, a memo chit prints and a workstation operator must manually fire the order.
   (Optional) Maximum Days	Enter the maximum number of days for which workstation operators can schedule orders to fire automatically.
   (Optional) 1 - Print Autofire Memo at Time of Entry	Select this option if you want a memo chit to print when workstation operators create orders that fire automatically.
   (Optional) 2 - Print Guest Check at Time of Autofire	Select this option if you want a guest check to print when an order automatically fires to order devices. If you select this option, guest checks print at the guest check printer assigned to the autofire workstation.
   3 - Enable Autofire in this Revenue Center	Select this option to allow the revenue center to create orders that fire automatically. If you are using DOM, do not enable Autofire or hold and fire.
