Required Permissions

An employee must be assigned to the shop with a Shop Owner Admin role to perform actions referred to in this article.

A Shop in ShopCtrl is a sales channel through which you generate orders. It could be a webshop, a marketplace, or an offline point of sale - 'In Store'.
Each shop has its own currency, branding, company contact information, document and email templates, and synchronization with a webshop or a marketplace. Employees could be assigned to a shop with certain roles that will grant them a defined set of permissions limited to this shop only.

  16. On the Financial > Payment tab you can specify Max payment deviation, which is the maximum allowed difference for under- and overpayments. If the outstanding amount or overpayment fits in the payment tolerance limit, the payment is allocated and the order/invoice will be considered as paid.

The Max payment deviation limit depends on the currency used in the shop. For example, for Euros the deviation is specified in decimals. While the deviation for Norwegian crones can be specified only in whole numbers.
