MED: This drawer will be used for Med-only sales to Medical customers only.
REC: This drawer will be used for Rec-only sales to Recreational customers only.

Information about Drawers:
Flowhub Drawers are linked to Flowhub Rooms.
Drawers can only be linked to "For Sale" rooms.
When a drawer is created, a room will be associated with that drawer. As a budtender rings up a sale, any products that aren't in the room that the drawer is associated with will be unavailable for the budtender to select and sell to a customer.
Budtenders can be assigned to more than one drawer at a time. Before completing a transaction, they will be asked to choose a drawer.
If you can't find a product for sale, check what Room that inventory item is in, and what Room your Drawer is set up to reference.
Physical Cash Drawers:
If you're looking for how to connect your physical cash drawer to your computer terminal - that will connect directly to your Receipt Printer as a peripheral. Research or Google the model of the cash drawer and receipt printer you have to find connection instructions or contact our third-party hardware provider, Venture Sourcing Group, for additional assistance. There is no mechanism or setting in Maui to connect a Cash Drawer.
