Enable/Disable Backend Quickpick

POSTED ON 19/12/25 BY PRODUCT TEAM

Users can manage and update Quickpick layouts remotely from the EPOS backend.

💡Currently, users can choose to edit Quickpick either from the backend or the frontend, but not both at the same time. This setting applies to all outlets connected to this backend.

For example:
Scenarios where most devices use backend Quickpick while a single device uses POS Quickpick (e.g. 19 devices on backend Quickpick and 1 device on POS Quickpick) are not supported.

Under EPOS Backend > Setup > Quickpick Settings

⬇ Explore the different behaviors of the Backend Quickpick by toggling between tabs below.⬇

How to Enable Quickpick

To enable Quickpick edit from backend, follow the following steps:

1. Go to Config
2. Toggle on the Enable Edit Quickpick On Backend
3. Once toggle is on, users can only edit Quickpick on backend not on the POS

When Quickpick is Enabled

📝 Always create a template before turning on “Edit QuickPick from Backend. To learn how to do this, refer to Create Quickpick Template.

If users enable the toggle first without assigning any template:
→ The POS will display an empty Quickpick layout.
→ Staff cannot edit the Quickpick on the POS because POS Quickpick is disabled when Backend Quickpick is active.


When edit Quickpick on Backend is enabled, the Quickpick Settings tab on the POS is removed

When edit Quickpick on Backend is enabled, POS will display the Quickpick layout that was assigned to this POS on the backend
