Price Look-Ups (PLUs)

Depending on the model purchased, a total of 99 or 200 Price Look Up
(PLU) codes are available on this cash register. The Price Look Up
system allows for fast, accurate entry of an item and automatically records
the number of items sold.
There are two methods in programming PLUs. One method is to set the
PLU number with a preset price known as a Fixed PLU Price. The
second method is to set the PLU without a preset price, where you are
able to manually enter the price of an item while still having the sales
activity recorded under the PLU number on management reports, known
as an Open PLU Price (Sub-department). The Open PLU Price is
recommended for items whose prices change frequently.
Before getting started with programming PLUs, proceed with the
following three steps:
1. Make a list of the PLU numbers and their prices you wish to program.
2. Decide whether you want the PLU number designated as a Fixed PLU
Price or an Open PLU Price. Note: The Fixed PLU Price does not
allow you to override or change a preset price in the register
mode whereas the Open PLU Price does.
3. Determine if each PLU number requires tax or no tax. If tax is
required for a particular PLU number, be sure to link the PLU number
to a department that is programmed for tax. Likewise, if a PLU
number does not require tax, then link the PLU number to a
department not programmed for tax.
