Sorry I can not help. When I worked in retail they still had cash registers.  Quote from: EndOfForever on July 26, 2018, 10:59:30 PM
It will be for troubleshooting PoS systems for clients.

My Job actually involves writing Point of Sale and Inventory Management/Reservation Management software for Marina's, and since it's a small company I often get tasked to deal with support issues. In fact, coincidence of coincidence, my task for the last month or so has been a rework of our primary POS front-end to remove some limitations.

But, that said, I don't even know where to begin with giving "advice" on the matter. Particularly since it SOUNDS like if you are in a call center you are going to be far REMOVED from other levels of support and possibly involve a script. It's all going to depend heavily on the specific software products for which you will be providing support. Most software has "known issues" or their own diagnostic steps that you would want to take beyond just general tasks.
