If you previously used NCR Silver Pro Restaurant without EMV, you will notice a difference in the way you process credit card transactions.

With a non-EMV terminal, such as an MSR, you could swipe the credit card at any time during the transaction and adjust tips at a later time. With EMV, you must follow certain steps before you can swipe a credit card and you cannot adjust tips. Only the customer can enter a tip amount, which they do on the EMV terminal. Additionally, EMV terminals do not allow for the manual entry of a credit card number.

The process of closing a guest check with a credit card may vary, depending on the verification methods required. At times, you may be prompted to enter an Operator PIN to continue the transaction. The Operator PIN is the four-digit PIN you used to log in to the app.

The following section outlines various transaction scenarios with EMV.

To close a guest check when a customer PIN is required:
  1. The employee adds items to the guest check.
  2. The employee taps PAY.
  3. The employee taps CREDIT. The Amount screen appears.
  4. The employee confirms the amount to charge to the credit card and taps Done.
-OR-

The employee enters a different amount and taps Done. The amount you enter cannot be more than the total amount due.
