Glossary

Activity Count
The activity counter increments each time an entry is made on a PLU, or function key. The counter
prints on the appropriate reports.
Cancel
Press the CANCEL function to abort a transaction in progress. All current items are removed
(voided).
Cash Declaration
This option forces the operator to count the cash drawer and input the results before the financial
report can be taken. Absentee owners may want clerks or managers to declare the drawer counts to
ensure that all cash is deposited, regardless of overages, or shortages. As an added benefit, the
overage or shortage amount is calculated and printed on the financial report.
Clerk
Sales clerks are individuals who are responsible for selling the merchandise to the customer.
Typically, management wants to know merchandise sales levels for each clerk to monitor
productivity, account for cash and other media, and/or pay commissions. The default program
provides operation for 15 clerks, however up to 99 different clerks can used by changing the default
memory allocation.
Compulsory
When an operation is programmed compulsory, the appropriate entry must be performed to complete
the operation.
Compulsory Amount Tendering
This forces the operator to input the tender, rather than pressing a payment key directly. The change
will always be computed by the register when a customer tenders an amount greater than the total
due. Compulsory tendering will reduce cashier change errors.
Compulsory Condiment
When a kitchen printer, or requisition system is used, the merchant may wish to force the entry of a
condiment or instruction for specific items. If compulsory condiment status is set for a specific PLU,
then a condiment PLU must follow the entry of the item.
