The PIN
Parts with a padlock ask for the shop's PIN. After entering it, top right shows Unlocked with a countdown: while it runs, you can carry on without the PIN. Tap it to lock again at once.
Which parts ask for the PIN is set in Settings → Links & security → PIN & security.
Forgot the PIN? Tap Forgot the PIN? on the PIN pad. With the codes of your own licence you can set a new one; if you don't have them at hand, support@kwikeat.com helps you with a reset code.
Language
Top right, next to the clock, you choose the screen language: Nederlands, English, Deutsch, Français or Español. It applies per PC and changes at once; an order you are entering stays. Customer receipts follow the language of the shop's country.
Notices
Short notices appear at the bottom right: a new web order (with a sound), a new version, a backup that succeeded. Most disappear by themselves; important ones stay until you close them.
