Home Screen
Once you have logged into Vital Select, you will be directed to the Home Screen. Here you can see basic information about your register and take various actions.
Information Panel
On the left side of the screen you will see the Information Panel. This panel displays the name of the current user, the Location Name and Account ID, the Register Name and Register Time, the App Version, and the Online/Offline Status. This information will be useful to have available if you ever need to contact support.

These buttons are displayed based on account permissions. A user that is a Cashier may only see the Orders Button, whereas a user that is an Admin will see all of the available buttons.

Selecting the Orders Button launches the Orders Screen, which allows the user to:
- Create and checkout Orders,
