Set **Cash Drawer Mode** POS Store settings (this setting has three possible modes): - Disconnected Cash Drawer - In this mode, the cash drawer isn’t connected to the POS Register and the POS Register won’t communicate with the cash drawer. This setting prefills the cash payment prompt with the complete order amount for cash payment done from the unified cart. - Connected Cash Drawer - In this mode, the cash drawer is expected to be connected to the POS Register and the POS Register will attempt to communicate with the cash drawer during cash operations. - Cash Drawer Via External URL - In this mode, each cash drawer is assigned a specific QR code and it will be used by POS Register to scan and communicate with that cash drawer. POS Register can scan the QR code just in time for the cash handling operation.
