The optional Auto Sell Scripts configuration removes the need to manually clear large backlogs of zero‑priced scripts at the Till. This option is not enabled by default.

When enabled, Minfos will automatically sell eligible $0 NHS and/or $0 Private scripts as part of the End of Day (EOD) process. As part of this process the SOH is updated and sales are recorded as auto-processed transactions providing full visibility in Sales Enquiry and reporting.

Note    

Once enabled, the Auto Sell function will process all existing $0 scripts that match the selected criteria, not just new ones. If your store has a backlog of older scripts meeting the criteria, they will be sold automatically when this setting is activated.

Negative‑quantity and deleted scripts are excluded and must still be managed manually.
