Practice without affecting live service
Training Mode provides a practice environment on an individual PAD. Training activity does not change restaurant reporting or inventory, and kitchen tickets are not sent to production. Practice bills and receipts can be printed with a Training Mode label.

Select Training Mode and enable Activate Training Mode.

The PAD returns to its login screen in Training Mode. A colored border and repeated Training Mode background identify the practice environment.
