## Summary
Set up fiscal devices so the location can support compliant checkout flow in markets and setups where fiscal processing is required.

## Before you begin
- Confirm that fiscal devices are required for the location and market
- Make sure the fiscal device is installed, powered on, and operationally ready
- Know which POS device should work with the fiscal device
- Make sure the location is using the correct fiscal setup and business details
- Confirm the team understands that fiscal flow is part of live checkout, not a separate afterthought

## Steps
1. Prepare the fiscal device at the correct checkout position.
2. Open the fiscal setup area in the relevant Selio flow.
3. Connect or assign the fiscal device to the intended POS device.
4. Review the fiscal setup details carefully.
5. Save the fiscal configuration.
6. Run a controlled fiscal test, if available in the setup workflow.
7. Confirm the location is ready to use the fiscal flow during real checkout.

## Troubleshooting
- **The fiscal device is powered on but not usable in Selio:** Recheck assignment, setup path, and location context.
- **The team sets up the wrong fiscal device at the wrong checkout point:** Tie each fiscal unit to the real operational station.
- **Checkout depends on fiscal flow but the test was skipped:** Never go live without a controlled validation step.
- **Staff treats fiscal as optional even where required:** Build it into the checkout training flow from day one.
