The menu item enables the user at the POS to shutdown the particular iVend POS terminal.

To shutdown the POS, the user clicks “Shutdown Terminal” on the User Menu Screen. The system prompts for a confirmation message on clicking this button.

If the user at the Management Console has enabled the “Reason Code Details Required” or the “Comment Details Required” for “Shutdown Terminal” in the “Retail Profile” assigned to the POS, an “Audit” screen is displayed on acknowledging the confirmation message and a value has to be entered for the comment and the reason code (if enabled at the management console) to complete the activity.
