Plu Minimum Stock; Non-Plu Code - Sam4s SPS-500 Series Program Reference Manual

PLU Minimum Stock

You can enter minimum inventory levels for PLUs with stock status. (The PLU must be linked to a PLU
Status Group with option# 16 Stock PLU? set to YES.) When the level of a stock item falls below the
minimum inventory level set here, the item will appear on the PLU MINIMUM STOCK report. Optionally, a
warning "BELOW MINIMUM STOCK" can display when if the PLU is registered and stock is below the
minimum level. (See SYSTEM OPTIONS, GENERAL FUNCTION OPTION #57 to activate the warning.)
When multiple registers are installed, stock count is checked by IRC at each stock item registration.
1. From the P mode menu touch PLU to view the PLU program selection window.
2. Touch PLU MINIMUM STOCK.
3. Use the PLU Select screen to find the PLU you wish to adjust.
4. Touch the minimum stock value, and then enter minimum stock value. Use the decimal key to enter
whole or partial unit values.

Non-PLU Code

The NON-PLU Code program must be set if you wish to scan UPCs (using the EAN 13 code) with embedded
prices or weights.
Within the EAN 13 code, the first two digits (part a) are used as an identifier and the last digit (part c) is used
as a check digit. The remaining 10 digits (part b) contain the product code and the price (or weight or
quantity).
a) Identifier
There are 11 identifier numbers available for non-PLU code programming: "02" and "20" through "29". The
purpose of this program is to define the format of the 10-digit part b for each possible identifier. For
example:

The structure of Non PLU identifier "02" can be defined to use 5 digits for the product code and 5
digits for the price.

The structure of Non PLU identifier "20" can be defined to use 6 digits for the product code and 4
digits for the price.
To Program Non-PLU codes:
1. Select NON-CODE PLU from the PGM mode MENU to display the NON-CODE PLU
PROGRAMMING screen.
2. Choose one of the non-PLU identifiers ("02" or "20" through "29").
3. The NON-PLU# PROGRAMMING screen displays for the identifier you have chosen to
program.
4. Use the field definitions below as a reference in filling the fields of this screen.
5. Press CLOSE to return to the NON-CODE PLU PROGRAMMING screen.
