POS Terminal Type window

It is needed to create a new POS Terminal Type for SCO per store or to use an existing one. However, it is very important not to configure just one POS Terminal Type and use it for WEBPOS and SCO terminals, there has to be a POS Terminal Type for SCO and another POS Terminal Type for WEBPOS.

The new terminal should be configured as usual but with one difference: there is a new section called SCO Configuration.
