			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What is the Annual Software Subscription Plan and why do I need it?</p>
<p>I am asked that question so often that I decided to put it in the newsletter.</p>
<p>When you first purchased your Restaurant Manager software, you<strong> received a discount for</strong> <strong>committing to a (3) three year contract to the Annual Software Subscription Plan through Restaurant Manager. </strong> Each year POSitive Technologies, Inc. prepays this for you, and then bills you on your anniversary date. You will see this on the Estimate for your Annual Maintenance or Phone Help Support Contract or on an invoice if you do not purchase the Maintenance or Phone Help Contract.</p>
<p>The Annual Software Subscription Plan provides you all your updates and keeps you PCI Compliant. When a new version is released, you get it.</p>
<p>Imagine if you bought Windows 98 and when the new Windows XP and Vista came out you didn&#8217;t have to pay any extra for the new software. Well that&#8217;s what the Annual Software Subscription Plan does for you. You are basically paying for the right to get the next release when it comes out.</p>
<p>PC-Charge, AVG (2 year agreement), Microsoft RMS, Keystroke, Par PixelPoint and LogMeIn also have annual agreements but may very.</p>

<p>1. If the cash drawer will not open check the printer which drives the cash drawer.</p>
<p>2. Make sure the printer is on, there are no error lights, and that printer spooler is running.</p>
<p>3. There is a cable coming out of the back of the cash drawer. It hooks into the DK port on the back of a printer. Some cash drawers have a cable that is hard wired into the drawer, and some have a plug underneath were the cable plugs into.</p>
<p>4. Is the cash drawer making a “Ding” sounds, but not popping. Usually this is either; the drawer is locked, or something has jammed the drawer.</p>
<p>5. If you cannot access the “Settle” button , then the cash tray has not been initialized.</p>

<p>Have you ever had to sit on the phone for hours with a service technician trying to figure out what was wrong with your printer, server or other POS equipment only to find out that the technician needs to come out to fix the issue or you need to take it to a repair shop or worse, the equipment needs to be replaced completely? Problems like this can cost hundreds, even thousands of dollars in money and time.</p>
<p>Purchasing a maintenance contract from your service provider can save you money on loss of business from down time and the time that took you away from your business.</p>
<p>Our maintenance contracts cover labor, hardware and software.</p>
<p>We will perform a yearly preventative maintenance that  can eliminate issues like server and POS replacements and repairs caused from over heating and other common issues.  All your software updates are included in your contract such as AVG, PC Charge (if you buy it through us) as well as the yearly POS software version updates.</p>
<p>Call us today and quit spending money needless service repair.</p>
<p>For more information on our maintenance contract please contact us at 503 284-6565.</p>
