Collection Point

Both kiosk and tablet need to have a Collection Point code set as their Terminal in order to work properly. Information regarding the Building to which a kiosk/tablet belongs, its address, map position, approval type, visibility and notification emails are all defined according to the Collection Point associated - created, edited or deleted via this portlet.

To open the Collection Point portlet, go to Menu > Admin > Collection Point.

All the collection points will be presented, ordered by Code.
