Configuring Smart Keys

Smart keys call multiple functions based on a set of conditions. For example, the same key can be configured to start an autofire check if the order channel condition is 'Delivery', and to begin a fast transaction if the order channel condition is 'To Go'.

Note:

Smart keys are not supported on hand-held POS devices.
