    Step 2 // Essential Cloud POS Settings

    "Fail to prepare, prepare to fail..."

    It's extremely worthwhile to spend time setting up your Cloud POS retail system so that it best suits your business needs.  

    Laying the groundwork now will ensure that you start off on the right footing to get the most from the platform.

    When Citrus-Lime created your Cloud POS retail system, we tailored it so that many of the default settings are relevant to your industry.

    However, there's no one-size-fits-all solution, and you'll have your own ideas for how to set things up so that they work best for your business.

    In this section of our Getting Started guide, we look at the essential settings you'll need to have in place in preparation for trading on Cloud POS.
