Analysing Events in the Security Centre
Once you're inside the Security Centre, you have the option to specify a start and end date for analysis. By default, the current day is selected as the date range.
Each device is assigned a random name based on its IP address, allowing you to track events associated with specific devices.
The Security Centre consists of two main sections: Patterns and Events.
Patterns
A pattern is made up of multiple events to form a pattern. For example, if a product is removed from the sell screen without finalising the sale, followed by the opening of the cash drawer, it would be identified as a Potential Cash Mishandled pattern. To further analyse the pattern, select More next to the pattern, this will display all of the events that contributed to the pattern.
Events
All Security Centre events will be displayed from oldest to newest events for whichever date you have selected. To only display certain events, select Filters and choose the Events you wish to display from the drop-down menu.
Select More to view additional information about a specific Event.
