# Use POS Settings During Service

> Use POS settings during service for printers, reports, sessions, out-of-stock control, and preferences.

Use `Settings` from the bottom bar for device-level tools during service.

## Service Tools

The service tools area can include customers, reservations, out-of-stock control, e-menu orders, and printers.

Use these when staff need to pause online ordering, mark products unavailable, or check connected printers.

## Session Controls

Use session controls to end the session, lock the screen, force sync, or push changes.

## Reports

Use printable reports when a receipt printer is connected.

Reports can include sales, transactions, item sales, cash flow, and member orders.

## Preferences

Use preferences for language and full-screen behavior on the station.

Do not use POS settings for menu setup, roles, or workspace configuration. Those belong in the main Console.
