Post-paid session.
Post-paid session is for customers who want to use PC first without mentioning how long they want to use it.

How to start a post-paid session
1. Double-click on any terminal (whether it is connected or not) at terminal list on the main CCAutoServer window.
2. Start Session window will appear.
3. Select rate. The rate you want to charge the customer.
4. Click start button.

Once the start button clicked, the terminal name in the terminal list will disappear; instead, all the data will be calculated and shown in Active Session table. Where:
Terminal : which PC the customer is using. (Inserted)
Start : Start time; the time when you click the start button and the terminal is available. However, if the terminal is not available, it will shows "0", which means it is waiting for the terminal to connect.
Stop : It will shows "0" because the time is not certain.
Rate Type : The rate you are charging the customer.
Time(m) : It will shows "0" because the time is not certain.
Prepaid : It will shows "0" because the customer does not pay any amount yet.

The session will continue untill you stop it manually. Usually, the customer will come to the counter and tell the cyber cafe's operator that they want to stop. To stop the session manually :
1. Double-click the terminal line in the Active Session table.
2. Stop or Add Session window will appear. Make sure the terminal name is correct.
3. There is a box named "To Pay" which shows the amount the customer have to pay. At this point, if you want to give discount to the customer, adjust the Amount Received.
