It only gives me the option for a percentage comp. Example- I would like to take $10 off of a guests check.
There are several ways you can do this. I suggest you setup an inventory item called DISCOUNT under the NONE department. Set the price at zero. Check box for PROMPT PRICE. When you use button, it will prompt for price. Enter amount of discount followed by "-". Be careful. This gives employees ability to punch in anything. You can set it up requiring special permission, then change employees permission to sell special items to NO. You can always set the price to a negative 10, but this limits your discounting ability. You can also put it on one of the customized buttons if you wish. COMP will not work for your scenario.

For the price, it is a good product. It uses an SQL database and can be customized in many ways. As with any good restaurant POS, the main concern is getting the menu programmed into the software so that invoicing flows smoothly. Once programmed, it is easy to show employees how to operate.
Unless you are going to spend a lot of time learning the software, I would recommend letting someone program menu for you. Then you just learn how to modify or change it. (add items or price change)
Here is one reputable programmer's website if interested: http://cpcpos.com/posconfig.htm
SOURCE: I can not restore my database which I backed up
brewkeeper, there are so many possibilities on this subject that I couldn't even begin to cover them. The backup file should end in '.bak' and be located in the 'CRE.net' folder under Program files on your C drive if you did a typical installation. If the backup completed successfully, you should have received a completed popup. If you locate the backup file, the restore process will ask you what you want to call the restored database. If you are positive you want to do this, call it 'cresql'. This is the standard RPE database name. If you are not positive, call it something else. You may not use numbers. Try using 'restoreone'. You should get a message that database was restored. This does not, repeat does not make it the active database. You must then switch to the new database name you created. This will allow you to switch back and forth between databases. If you called the restored DB 'cresql', then it would be active and overwrite the current database. Any changed since the backup would be lost.
I repair RPE databases and am available if you need help recovering. Email me at [email protected] and I'll call you.
SOURCE: do you know how to
On the startup screen, before you login, click on FILE in upper left corner. Select DATABASE MAINTENANCE, then click CLEAR DATABASE. You will then be given several choices as to what you wish to clear from the database.
This only clears certain data from database, it does not clear everything. For more info, contact me.

Try using the default ones. They are ID of 01 and password admin. If this lets you in, go to EMPLOYEE MAINTENANCE and make sure account has not been disabled, then reset the password.
If the defaults don't work, you could restore database from a backup.
If you don't have a recent backup, you will need to add an administrative account to the database manually. This would require technical assistance from me or PCAmerica.

You could program a key at bottom with the ON SCREEN KEYBOARD function using the TOUCH SCREEN SETUP. This will let you manually type in the item number or bar code number. One thing to note, if you do not use bar code numbers as your item numbers, you can still make this work. On your inventory screen, click on the green check box beside ALTERNATE SKU. Then type or scan the bar code and ENTER and SAVE. You now have both an item # and bar code # that will reference your items.
