Manage salespersons in 52ViKING Store Management

This topic is primarily for administrators and other people who manage a Fiftytwo solution

You may need to have particular user rights in order to use this functionality. Ask your Fiftytwo administrator if you're in doubt.

In 52ViKING, shop assistants can have two roles: Operator or salesperson.

  • A salesperson is someone who uses a till. You typically use salespersons when multiple shop assistants share one or more tills during a day.

  • Sales are registered on the salesperson who makes the sale on the till, but money in the cash drawer is shared between all salespersons who use the till.

  • A salesperson typically logs in to the till for every sale, and they're typically automatically logged out when the sale has been completed.

You can manage salespersons for a single store as well as for multiple stores at the same time in 52ViKING Store Management. Here, we primarily describe 52ViKING Store Management for single-store management, but if you've set up synchronization between your chain's enterprise controller and your stores' store controllers, you can use 52ViKING Store Management for chain-wide store management as well.

  1. Open 52ViKING Store Management in a browser, connect to the IP address or hostname of the required 52ViKING store controller, and log in.

  2. Navigate to salespersons:

    1. Expand the menu in the left part of the page

    2. Expand Store maintenance

    3. Select Salespersons

  3. In the top right corner of the Salespersons page, click .

  4. In the Basic information section, specify the following:

    • Salesperson ID: The unique number that will identify the salesperson. The number is a key field that you can't edit later.

      If your organization uses a special numbering scheme for salespersons, it's important that you follow that scheme. Ask your Fiftytwo administrator if you're in doubt.

    • Name: The salesperson's name.

    • Initials: The salesperson's initials.

    • EAN code: The number of the barcode on the salesperson's ID card.

  5. In the Details section, specify the following:

    • Category: Select the relevant shop assistant category. The category determines the salesperson's user rights and consequently which features they're able to use.

    • Budget: Optionally, specify a sales budget for the salesperson.

    • Sale until now: Shows how close the salesperson is to reach the specified budget.

  6. In the Security section, specify the following:

    • Password: Specify the salesperson's passcode for logging in to tills.

    • Allowed terminals: Specify the numbers of the tills that the salesperson must be able to work at.

      Separate till numbers with a comma. Use two periods between till numbers to specify a range.

      Example: Type 1,4,7..10,15 to specify tills 1, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 15.

  7. Click at the top of the page to save.

  1. Find the required salesperson:

    • In the filters section at the top of the Salespersons page, search for the salesperson's ID or name.

      Can we use more advanced filters?Closed Yes. If you need more filtering options, click the Advanced button, and then place your pointer in the field to view more options, for example creation or modification date (available filter options vary depending on which page you work on). The field also displays a icon that you can click to learn more about expression syntax, how to combine filters with Boolean operators (AND, OR), how to order results, etc.
      Simple example: On a page with advanced filters for dates, modif >= "2024-01-01" will display records modified on a date equal to or later than 01 January, 2024.

      If you want to control what information is displayed on the page, you can click in the top right part of the page. The fact that a piece of available information may not be displayed on the page will not affect your filtering options.
