Manual Sales Registration
Manual sales represent tickets sold on board the bus in cash, for which the passenger is given a manual ticket. The sales process is entirely manual, and this feature is meant to provide a way of registering these sales inside the Betterez platform.
Steps to configure
- Enable the setting from here: admin/sales-inventory/operation-settings. "Enable the assignment of manual ticket sequences to users"
- Go to admin > Users > (your user), then on the ticket sequences section: https://sandbox.betterez.com/admin/users/{userId}, add a new sequence.
- The user (driver) must be assigned to the manifest where he was selling the tickets.
- Then, when he arrives at the station, the user (driver) must upload manifest date, schedule name, driver and tickets * with their prices : https://sandbox.betterez.com/shift/{shiftId}/manual-sales . The button to manual sales is in the manual sales tab on the shift page.
- Amounts are added to the shift balance as a cash amount, and should be deposited before closing the shift.
Possible errors
- The ticket # must match the format entered in step 2, otherwise you will get an error.
- Tickets numbers must be unique, consecutive and not already used.
