How it works
This feature lets you scan a customer’s US driver’s license barcode to automatically add them to an order and record their date of birth in the CRM. Based on the age settings, the system immediately indicates whether the customer is allowed to purchase age-restricted products (e.g., alcohol).
Why it’s useful
Speeds up order entry by auto-adding customer info
Ensures compliance with age restrictions
Reduces manual errors in recording customer DOB
Steps to Enable & Use
Log into SalesVu.com and navigate to Location Settings
Add a new order or open an existing one
You will see the line Minimum Age to Purchase Alcohol, please enter the number there e.g.18
Scan the US driver’s license barcode by touching on 'Bar code' icon on POS (see US DL barcode specs, Table D.3 – 2D Mandatory data elements in the attachments)
Customer is added to the order and DOB is stored in CRM
Also, a visual green indicator on the order shows the customer age to inform you if the customer can or cannot purchase alcohol based on age settings
