General Setup

Your store on POS is no less than a virtual mapping of your physical store. Without the exact mapping, your POS will fail to work as seamlessly as you desired. A correct mapping can help you reduce time spent every day, invest your energy in other activities, smoothen out processes, and keep your customers satisfied. RepairDesk believes in sharing the burden of repair store owners. The store setup is the first step for you to become a part of the RepairDesk family and get acquainted with your lifelong partner. Since it is a small introduction for you to the functionalities, it has been kept simple so you don’t end up wasting all your day. RepairDesk’s setup can be divided into two halves – Profile Setup and General Store Setup.

Profile Setup

Profile setup allows you to add, delete and edit details about your profile. You can add your generic information including store name, address, contact number, and email address, etc. You can introduce a password and activate two-factor authentication to ensure security and check the RepairDesk package details you signed up for.

General Profile Setup

To start profile setup, log into your store on RepairDesk. Follow the following path to open a basic profile configuration.

Path: \Store Settings > Profile > General

This section is further divided into three sub-sections including Basic Information, Update Password, and Security. We will walk you through every section one by one.

Basic Information

  • You can click on the image box on the left side of the screen. It will open the local computer folder for you to select a profile picture. Double-click the picture to add it as your profile picture.

  • The user can also add personal address, mobile number, phone number, and email address in the assigned textboxes. Click on the Save button in the right bottom corner to save your settings.

Update Password

  • To change the current password, the user has to enter the existing password in the Old Password textbox.

Security

This section contains only one toggle designed to enable/disable two-factor authentication. To enable 2FA authentication, the user has to turn on the toggle. Once the toggle turns green, the user is secured with 2FA and will receive a verification code on provided email address while logging in. It is turned off when red.
