Login Shortcuts

This page describes the Login Shortcuts register in the User Settings module. This description focuses on its use in the Hotel module: please refer here if you need a description focusing on its use in the Point of Sales module and here for the Restaurant module.

The Login Shortcuts register allows you to specify the window that will be opened when a user logs in to your Standard ERP system. In some environments (e.g. Hotel, Restaurant, POS, Production), users usually won't need access the majority of your Standard ERP database, but instead should be taken immediately to the window that they need when they log in.

You must configure this register separately on each client machine. For the purposes of the Hotel module, you may need to use this setting on particular machines to specify that some users will be shown one of the Resource Planner windows when they log in.

To edit the Login Shortcuts register, ensure you are in the User Settings module and open the list of registers from the Navigation Centre. Then double-click (Windows/macOS) or tap (iOS/Android) 'Login Shortcuts' in the resulting list. The 'Login Shortcuts: Inspect' window opens:

Add a separate line for each user that will use the client machine, till or device, as follows:
