Products

On a product form, in the “Sales” tab, the “Can be Paid for by Meal Vouchers” checkbox controls whether the product can be paid for by meal vouchers.

Product categories can be configured to have a default value for the “Can be Paid for by Meal Vouchers” field for its products. The “Apply to All Products” button allows to set the value on all products of the category.

Point of Sale Payment Methods

Point of sale payment methods (Point of Sale > Configuration > Payment Methods) have a “Meal Voucher Type” field that defines what type of meal voucher payment method they are:

• (empty): The payment method is not a meal voucher payment method.
• Paper: The payment method will be used when scanning meal voucher barcodes.
• Electronic: The payment method will be used for electronic meal vouchers.
