🔍 Overview

Once MEV-WEB is enabled in the Back Office, each POS terminal must be registered with Revenu Québec before it can be used.

Employees must also be registered the first time they use any POS terminal. Once registered, they’ll be authorized to access all POS terminals at the location for MEV-compliant sales.

Each process is explained in detail below in this article.

🖥️ Register the POS (Workstation)

The POS terminal itself must be registered before any orders can be placed.

There are two ways to register a POS:

1️⃣ During use (automatic prompt)

If an employee tries to open a table on an unregistered terminal:
- If they have All Settings permission, they’ll be redirected to the registration flow and they can start the process described below.

If not, a warning popup will appear, and they won’t be able to continue

⚠️ The POS cannot be used to place orders until it is registered.

2️⃣ From the Settings menu

Go to Settings > MEV-WEB
Click Register POS

Then follow those steps:

Click Yes for the identifier.

Confirm the company details displayed (entered previously in the Back Office)

Click Register POS

Once complete, the Device ID and Validity Period will be displayed, confirming successful registration.

👤 Register Employees to This POS

📌 POS Employee must first be created in the Back Office (via Settings > Employees). For help creating POS users, see our Employee Setup – POS article →.

Only employees with access to the ordering and payment sections of the POS need to be registered with MEV-WEB.

🛑 Employees who do not need to open tables (e.g. kitchen staff) do not need to be registered. These users should not have permission to Access order section in their role settings.

There are two ways to register an employee:

1️⃣ Automatically during usage (the employee himself)

If an unregistered employee with access to the order section tries to open a table:
- A popup will prompt them to register
- Clicking Yes completes the registration instantly—no extra steps required.

2️⃣From the MEV-WEB configuration screen

An employee with Access all Settings permission (typically a manager) can manually register other employees from the POS.

Go to Settings > MEV-WEB
Click Register next to the employee’s name

Confirm by clicking Yes

A confirmation message will appear once registered

Repeat this for all employees who will use this workstation. You can also deregister an employee from the same screen if they no longer need access to this POS.
