Basic Setup Wizard
As long as no cash register setups have been set up yet, this notification appears on all standard Business Central role centers and BE-POS setup pages:
If you click Set up BE-POS extension, the basic setup wizard opens. You can use it to define the initial setup for a cash register.
If you click Do not show again, this notification is no longer shown for the current user. If the current user has sufficient permissions to set up the cash register, the notification can also be deactivated for the entire tenant.
Insufficient Permissions
If you do not have sufficient permissions to set up the cash register, the basic setup wizard informs the user accordingly:
In this case, sign in with a user who has the SUPER or BET POS ADMIN permission set. Then run the basic setup wizard again with that user.
