Features

Every on/off switch for your store is on one page, Settings → Features. Use it to turn off the parts of the menu your business never opens. A gym has no use for Purchasing or Production, for example. The same page also turns the kitchen display, tables, the POS options and the Online Store on and off.

Anyone who can edit store settings can change it: the Owner, or a custom role with that permission. Everyone else sees the page but cannot change it. Nothing saves until you press Save Changes.

Hiding areas from the menu

Switch	What it hides
Services	Catalog → Services. Food & Beverage stores have no Services page, so they do not see this switch
Sales Orders & Shipments	Sales → Sales Orders and Sales → Shipments
Invoices	Sales → Invoices
Consignment	Sales → Consignment
Stamp Cards	Customers → Stamp Cards
Memberships	Customers → Memberships, Customers → Membership Plans and Settings → Membership Settings. Service businesses only
Purchasing	The whole Purchasing area: Suppliers, Purchase Orders, Supplier Returns, Supplier Credits, Payables and Landed Costs
Production	The whole Production area: Ingredients, Compositions, Decompositions, Commissary and Production Orders. For Food & Beverage stores, the Food Cost report too
Loans	Finance → Loans

A hidden area leaves the sidebar and the Go to page search for everyone in your store. Nothing is deleted. Your records stay, the POS keeps working, and a link someone saved still opens the page. Turn the switch back on and the area returns.

Appointments always shows for a service business. There is no switch to hide it. You can still turn off Partners and Queue under it.

Services and Memberships also decide what a new appointment can be booked for. With Services off, a booking takes a session from the customer's membership. With Memberships off, or before you have a membership plan, a booking is for a service. With both on, Book for lets you pick. A booking made before you changed a switch keeps what it was booked for.

These switches change the web menu only. The Kassly phone and desktop apps keep their own menus and do not read them yet.

The menu suggested for your business

A new store starts with the menu that suits its type of business. When your switches differ from that suggestion, the page shows a Suggested for … note naming what it would change. Press Use suggested menu to fill the switches in, check them, then press Save Changes to keep them.

Business	Turned off
Gym or fitness studio	Services, Sales Orders & Shipments, Invoices, Consignment, Purchasing, Production
Other service businesses	Sales Orders & Shipments, Invoices, Consignment, Purchasing, Production. A motor shop keeps Purchasing. A motor shop, car wash or laundry also turns off Memberships
Food & Beverage	Sales Orders & Shipments, Invoices, Consignment. A caterer keeps Sales Orders & Shipments and Invoices
Retail	Services, Production

A store that existed before this page was added keeps every area showing until you change it.

The suggestion never hides something because you have not paid for it. A locked item in the menu stays where it is, so you can see what an add-on would give you.

Switches that turn a feature on or off

These do more than hide a menu item: they switch the feature itself on or off.

Switch	Card	What it does	Who sees it
Kitchen Display System (KDS)	Dining	Sends orders to kitchen screens, and shows the kitchen queue and KDS stations	Everyone. Locked without the Kitchen Orders & Tables add-on
Table Management	Dining	Your floor plan, tables and dine-in orders	Everyone. Locked without the Kitchen Orders & Tables add-on
Partners	Appointments	Your stylists, coaches or technicians. Off also hides the partner field on bookings	Service businesses
Queue	Appointments	The walk-in queue	Service businesses
Job Orders	Appointments	Job orders and service tickets	Service businesses with the Job Orders add-on
Auto-Print Order Slip	POS & Readings	Prints the kitchen ticket, or the job order slip, whenever a receipt prints	Food & Beverage, and service businesses with Job Orders
Scan-first POS	POS & Readings	The POS starts with an empty grid, and cashiers scan or search to add items	Everyone
Show expenses in X/Z reading	POS & Readings	Adds an expenses section and a net-after-expenses line to the reading	Everyone
Online Store	Online Store	Your public store page. The link under it opens the delivery, pickup and payment settings	Everyone. Locked until any paid add-on is active

Show expenses in X/Z reading is off for a reason. A reading with expenses in it is no longer in BIR's expected shape. Kassly marks it clearly as non-BIR when you turn this on, but if you are going to hand a reading to an examiner, leave it off. See Closing a shift.

Scan-first POS is worth trying if you have hundreds of products. A grocery cashier scanning barcodes does not need a wall of tiles, and an empty grid is faster to work from.

For what each feature does once it is on, see Kitchen display, Table management, Job orders and Setting up your online store.
