Bit 91-Access to Osprey-this bit is necessary in order to revert the system back to dial-up when there is a Hi Speed failure. Epicor recommends you only assign this bit to management personnel.
Bit 573-Access to PBADMIN. Assign this bit to the specific user who you want to have access to PBADMIN, which is the Integrated Credit Cards utility screen used for settling transactions, viewing history, running reports, etc.
Bit 574-Ability to accept a declined check for payment. If a clerk does not have this bit, he can accept a check that has been declined, but only with a manager's override.
Bit 575-Ability to accept a declined bankcard for payment by entering the approval code manually. If a clerk does not have this bit, he can accept a credit card that has been declined, but only with a manager's override.
Bit 576-Allow clerks to accept a credit card without entering the last 4 numbers of the card number for verification. Note that if your system is set up to prompt clerks for the Integrated Credit Cards Customer Code (Last 4 digits of credit card), then you should assign this bit to all POS clerks, or else they'll have to enter the last four digits of the card number twice.
