Food Stamps Total (EBT - Electronic Benefit Transfer)

Function Configuration

In the USA, tax-exempt purchase of defined products is possible by using the tender Food Stamps or the electronic tender EBT Food Stamps (EBT = Electronic Benefit Transfer). At any time during the entry and payment processes, it must be possible to display the sum of tax-exempt items on the POS Client.

For this purpose, a button must be created, e.g. in the file registrationTabs.xml.

<input id="foodStampsTotalButton" type="button" valueKey="foodStamps.paymentFoodStamps.button" configId="FoodStampsTotalConfigs.DisplayFoodStampsTotal"/>

Perform the following setting in the file foodStampsTotalConfigs.properties:

 FoodStampsTotalConfigs.DisplayFoodStampsTotal=include:FoodStampsTotalConfigs.Default
 FoodStampsTotalConfigs.DisplayFoodStampsTotal.displayTotal=true
