Configuration Canada

Once an organisational structure has been created in the RetailForce Cloud, configurations can be created for the tills.

For general information on configurations, see the linked article.

The configuration for Canada (Québec) is explained in more detail in this article.

  • WEB-SRM Connection Timeout in ms - Sets the time that the client waits for responses from WEB-SRM before a timeout is returned to the upstream system (cash register system).

    Note: The waiting time in productive operation must not be less than 5 seconds. When performing test cases in the development and test environment, RQ recommends setting the waiting time to at least 10 seconds.

"Create" completes the creation of the configuration and saves it.
