Hospital Accounting Privileges

---|---|---|
Cashier Screen | Grants view only access to the Cashier screen. If a user can access the cashier screen, then all privileges except the ability to grant a refund are included. However, the user must be assigned to and logged into a virtual cash register (via Register Management) for these functions to work. Otherwise, the screen will remain view only. (Note that the privilege to Finalize an Order from the cashier screen is listed under Order Management privileges.) | Cashier Screen |
Create Refund | An elevated privilege that allows the user to create a refund from the Cashier screen. Without this privilege, the user cannot create a refund from the cashier screen, even if they are otherwise logged into a cash register. Without this privilege, the Refund option does not appear under the Transaction Type list. | Cashier Screen |
