Understand Company, Location, Terminal, and Licence Identities

Understand Company, Location, Terminal, and Licence Identities

You will choose the correct Muhasib scope when configuring access, devices, transactions, printing, and licensing.

Overview

Administrators and support staff managing multi-company or multi-terminal deployments.

Transactions and reports can be scoped differently by company, location, terminal, user, and licence. A correct licence does not automatically grant role permission, and a terminal master record does not by itself prove licence activation.

Purpose / Outcome

You will choose the correct Muhasib scope when configuring access, devices, transactions, printing, and licensing.

Permission Required

No write permission is required to understand the model. Viewing each record depends on its module permission.

Before You Begin

Identify the connected database and active company shown in Back Office.

🚨 Important
Make sure you are working in the correct company and have the required permission before you continue.

Navigation

Use Licence Information, company selection, Essentials Setup, and User Management to inspect each identity. This concept article has no single write path.
