When you first start NBS Amicus, default staff members are created for Admin and Standard User. By default the Admin user password is set to ADMIN. It is recommended that this be changed as soon as possible after installing the software and that the new password be recorded in a secure location. 

To access the Add/Edit Staff Details screen click on File from the Amicus Toolbar, click on Maintenance and then click on Add/Edit Staff Details. This will then bring up the following screen.

Figure : Enter details for staff members using the Details tab

The Number field is yellow because it is automatically populated by Amicus when you save the Staff Details record. Note: this field is unable to be edited.

To add the details of a new staff member, enter their name, which must be unique, into the Name field.

Next, type in a Password. While passwords do not have to be unique, they must be a minimum of four alpha-numeric characters. Re-Enter Password to confirm it.

The Keycode you type in must be unique for each staff member. Unless otherwise specified, a Key Code is four characters in length, or as specified on the Security tab of the Preferences for All Tills screen (refer to Security for more details). Re-Enter Keycode to confirm it.

Enter the Smartcard ID for this staff member. The Smartcard ID must be unique.
