A step-by-step walkthrough with real screenshots · FoolProof POS for alcohol retail
Steps
Open Admin → Business details.
Fill in Legal business name, Alcohol license #, Support email and Support phone.
Set Sales tax rate (%). It's charged on sales at your store — the register, pickup orders, layaways and quotes. Deliveries are taxed at the customer's address automatically. If the rate suggested from your address is the one you want, click Use this rate. Until a rate is set, the store can't complete a sale.
Set your Opening hours for each day, and check the Time zone.
Click Save business details.
Good to know
Opening hours also decide when a trading day ends, so the day's sales close at the right time. Opening hours are what you post; they don't change when alcohol can be sold. Your state's legal sale hours are enforced on their own (see Compliance → Sale hours), and Sunday sales stay off unless your local ordinance allows them.
Own more than one store? Admin → All stores sets the legal name, contact details, receipt messages, tax rate, delivery/pickup and whether each storefront is live for every store at once, without switching; opening hours are set per store in Business details. Admin → Stores lists your locations.
Admin → Accounting sets the account names (and Xero codes) your daily sales journal posts to. Download the journal from Reports → Accounting summary.
Selling by-the-glass pours needs an on-premise license on record: add it under Compliance → Alcohol licenses with the licence class On-premise. A package-store (off-premise) license can't sell by the glass, and tastings must be free. Then turn it on in Admin → Wine tasting / on-premise pours, confirm the license, Save, and mark pour items in the product editor.
Delivery marketplaces you sell through (DoorDash, Uber Eats…) are set under Admin → Third-party sales — see Payment types, surcharges and fees.
