Manage Lottery Games Overview

The "Manage Lottery Games" feature allows you to activate or deactivate lottery games for a specific store location. It also enables you to update the bin assignment at the location level directly from the POS.

Lottery games are initially created and activated at the account level in the Control Center, making them available across all locations. However, each store can manage individual games—such as activating, deactivating, or assigning bins—locally through the POS.
In this article, you will learn how to activate or deactivate lottery games and manage their bin assignments at the store level using the POS.

  1. Step 1: Log into POS
  2. Step 2: Choose Action

2.1 Deactivating the Active Lottery Game at Your Store Location

Please follow the steps to deactivate an active lottery game from the manage lottery games page:
  1. All the active games will be displayed on this page with an associated checked checkbox.
  2. In the "Active" column, uncheck the game you wish to deactivate. See Figure 2.1.0.

                                                                          Figure 2.1.0
  1. As displayed in Figure 2.1.0, when you deactivate the game, e.g., the highlighted game # 1074 is unchecked, it will be deactivated. 
  2. Once done, click on the "Update" button to save the changes.
  3. Click on "Cancel" to return to the previous page without making any changes. 
After deactivation, whenever this game is searched on POS, the system will acknowledge that the game is inactive now and will not show its details in the active game list.
See Figure 2.1.1 for reference.
