Multiple Receipts - Sam4s ER-230EJ Operating And Programming Manual

Mix & Match
Retailers often offer discounts when multiples of different items are purchased. For
example, the offer: "save £5 on any three bottles of wine" can be handled by a mix and
match discount. The default ER-230EJ can accommodate up to 10 different mix and match
discounts, the total can be increased to a maximum of 100 through memory allocation.

Multiple Receipts

In some cases, for example where a mail-in rebate is offered, an extra copy of a receipt is
needed. If allowed, the receipt must be re-printed immediately, before another transaction
is started.
Negative PLUs
As you program PLUs, you will find a setting to make them negative (normally they are
positive). Positive PLUs are used for items that add to the sale. Negative PLUs are used for
items that subtract from a sale, like individual store coupons or bottle deposit credits.
NLU
Number Look-Up (NLU) refers to PLU code that is accessed when a Keyboard PLU is
used. In the default program each Keyboard PLU will look up the appropriate numeric
PLU, beginning with PLU #1 for Keyboard PLU key #1 and continuing sequentially
through the keyboard.
However, this numbering sequence may be impractical for some applications. For example,
Keyboard PLU #1 may represent a can of Diet Pepsi. The merchant may wish to have the
Keyboard PLU look up the UPC code number for Diet Pepsi, which is "120500". Using
this program you can change the Number Look-Up (NLU) for the keyboard PLU to any 14-
digit number you choose.
No Sale
No sale is an operation to simply open the cash drawer. No sales are counted and reported
on the financial report.
Not Found PLU
For small merchants, the ER-230EJ can build a PLU file "on the fly". Each time an item is
scanned (or entered by PLU number) that is not in the PLU file, the operator is prompted to
enter the price and other options for the item. At the end of the day, the "Not Found PLU
Report" will allow the manager to verify the prices and update the PLU file as needed.
Open (PLU)
Open PLUs accepts price entries, rather than register a preset price. To prevent errors, you
may set a high limit (HALO) for open entries.
Override
Override is an operation used to bypass a programmed price or entry limit (HALO).
Over-Tendering/Under-Tendering
When a payment is made less than the amount due, it is called an under-tender. After an
under-tender, the register calculates and displays the remaining balance for the sale.
