Shopfront supports showing a current sale to the customer through the use of a customer facing display. This is typically setup as a screen mounted on the opposite side of your display. Additionally to the active sale's details the screen can be set up to display visual material such as logos, promotional images, or videos. 

Note; Shopfront support does not provide files for the customer display. Promotional material will be supplied by your banner group or can be individually created. Please note the below format restrictions when creating or loading files.

Add a Single Image or Video

A single, static image can be added to the customer facing screen. This can be e.g. store or bannergroup logo or promotional material or the specials of the week. 

1. Navigate to Menu > Setup > Customer Display
2. Select Edit next to your existing customer display
3. Choose Idle or Sale (Idle will be the screen showing when no products have been added to the sales screen)
