Term: Quick Connect

Quick Connect

Quick Connect (DE: Schnellanmeldung) is signing a Sales Point device in by scanning a QR code — with no username and password to type. The QR code carries an encrypted sign-in token, valid for 90 seconds, plus the Sales Point the device is to be bound to. The feature is available from bessa Kassa 6.0.

Who generates the code

  • The Main Sales Point under Settings > Sub-Terminals — for a Sub-Terminal that is not yet bound. The user signed in is the one signed in on the Main Sales Point.

  • The bessa Manager — for any Sales Point, including a Main Sales Point without a device. The user signed in is the target Sales Point's default user, not the Manager user who generated the code.

Quick Connect versus automatic sign-in

Automatic sign-in via the hardware ID (MDM devices such as Sunmi, iMin or Orderman) signs a device in by itself on every app start and needs no QR code. Quick Connect, by contrast, is a one-off action with a short-lived code that either commissions a device for the first time or switches the signed-in user.

Also known as

  • Schnellanmeldung — German term.

  • QR code sign-in — informal.
