| Subject: | Add security on the SEARCH Option for POS Items |
| Summary: | Add user level control on "Search" for items in POS. Justification - The Client wants to enforce internal control.
- Cashiers are selling items at a lower price by searching for products.
- The physical stock is not balanced, and it can not be easily verified.
Scenario - Customer A has placed 10kg bag of flour in the shopping cart. Price is $13.99
- At the checkout instead of the scanning the item, cashier searches for 2Kg flour and loads it in POS.Price is $3.69
- Cashier then sells the 10kg flour at a price of $3.69.
- Stock Controller is less by a 10kg bag of flour.
Change - Allow cashiers to only scan barcodes in POS. If cashier clicks on search, the system should prompt username and password so that administrator can allow for this if required. This won't completely solve the problem but will minimise the issue to some extent.
The below has been considered: - Cashiers who know the barcode will be able to enter the barcode of products and load them instead of searching item.
- We can not disable the barcode field, as this is where the barcode will be scanned.

| Hi Sanjay, This case has successfully tested. Documentation has been updated under Systems Manager -- User Role -- Role Menu Access -- POS Role Menu Access. Test Environment - Version - 9400
- Database - LINKSOFT in QA1
- Application on QA1
- OS - Windows 7
Test Plan | Test No | Description | Status | | 1 | Set the access to allow the search for an item to "None". When the cashier clicks on search open authorization. | Pass | | 2 | The manager has "All" access to search for an item. Manager account should pass the authorization. | Pass | | 3 | After the manager has passed the authorization, the cashier should be able to select product 005 and process the sale | Pass | | 4 | Set the access to allow the search for an item to "All". When the cashier clicks on search, product list should load and the user should be able to select product 005 and process the sale
| Pass |
Note: Currently users are able to search for products with "Read","Write" and "Delete" access. As per the discussion with Vineet, this is in the framework and since the 3 access is not applicable to search we will only control access for "Allow Search for item" with "All" and "None" only. |
