GPOS/SCO Restrictions - How to setup

SCO Restrictions

Gpos/SCO Restrictions are set by POS options at a Group Level. There is a further restriction option to define the type of restriction such as Medicine etc. It does not define a limit of any medication this is still a clerk operating process in the respect of knowing limits on selling 2 boxes of cold relief as an example.

As mentioned the initial set-up is done by accessing the group and setting the age restriction.
