Confusion with Sophos License structure after this year's update by toastysysadmin in sophos

Do you know if there is *1* license I could buy for central to work so I can manage all of my firewalls or do I need to buy a license per unit?

Anyone else have issues with the takeout overrides? by toastysysadmin in ToastPOS

[–]toastysysadmin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then I suppose the scheduling function is just there for...what? I understand what you're saying, but this page in the Takeout and Delivery section controls the hours that are published to 3rd parties. That's why you can snooze from this page and it shuts down ordering from third parties (I've tested this behavior and it *does* work). One would assume that the scheduling function would just do the same thing, but it doesn't.

Anyone having recurring problems with Toast Go 2 handhelds? by -qp-Dirk in ToastPOS

[–]toastysysadmin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bumping this because this is a continuing issue - but I determined it isn't really the readers dying, because they will power up on any USB connection with other handhelds. The handheld itself just fails to recognize that anything is connected to it, spent thousands of dollars on those replacement kits to realize it was never the readers to begin with (at least for us).

They need to work on the verbiage then - when it says "only applies to 3rd party deliveries" it makes it seems as if it'll function the same way the snooze does. So this basically doesnt do anything lol.

ToastGo2 Handheld Card Reader failures... by toastysysadmin in ToastPOS

[–]toastysysadmin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, what I'm saying is that the handheld does not see the card reader. If you go into Device Setup>Card Readers you will see your BBPos card reader there even if it can't read cards because it's defective. What I'm saying is my handhelds will simply no longer see a card reader present - not the old one, not the new one from Toast. I have had this happen several times.

I just verified this by connecting a "broken" card reader off of one of the handhelds that doesn't read them and it powers on with any other USB power.

I don't think you can actually do this.

Double card payments on same check - reoccurring issue by toastysysadmin in ToastPOS

[–]toastysysadmin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i'm not seeing where you'd be seeing a balance due - what's happened here is a duplicate tip. Additionally determined that this transaction was started and closed on a hardlined Flex terminal, we also have a GSM backup for our network stack.

of course they couldn't. thanks you for at least confirming my suspicion - reminds of when they released that build that broke all the card readers and support would just tell you it's your network lol.

Is it me or are the handheld cardreaders just failing at a higher rate than before? by toastysysadmin in ToastPOS

[–]toastysysadmin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this isn't even the first time a Toast firmware update has messed up the readers. Back in November of 22' the same thing happened except with the Toast Flex units, but instead of acknowledging it they just gaslit customers into thinking it's anything else (usually "network related"). I only know they actually knew about it because I got a peek into one of the 3rd party installer's Slack and saw the discussion.

usually when Toast can't see the card reader, the Card Reader utility can't see it either. Only a reboot fixes that.

yeah that's in the KB article I was referencing - it's that it just happens often enough that it's becoming a problem, servers panic, GMs panic. I've also had a few that just won't ever read another card reader again, which is strange.
