Post Tender
Post tendering is available to help prevent cashier confusion when a customer decides to
change the tender amount. When Post Tendering is allowed, the operator can re-enter a cash
tender and the register will re-calculate the change.
To post tender after finalizing the sale, enter the cash amount presented by the customer and
then press CASH. The amount of change due to the customer is then displayed. This is a
calculation function only, and no totals or counters are updated by the use of this feature.
Preamble/Postamble Message
Programmable messages allow each merchant to customize his receipt with the store name,
address, phone number, website or other critical identification information or advertising
messages. The SAM4s ER-900 Series allows a preamble message of up to six lines, each
with up to 24-characters, to be printed at the top of each receipt. A postamble of up to 6-lines
of 24-characters can also be printed at the bottom of the receipt.
Preset (PLU)
When a PLU is pre-programmed or pre-set with a fixed amount, the preset amount will
automatically register when the PLU is pressed or entered.
Preset Override
When a PLU is preset, it is possible to override the preset price with a different price. If the
override function is set to be allowed in the PLU program, you can simply enter a new price
and press the PLU key.
Receipt
A receipt is a printed tape given to a customer as a record of the sale transaction.
Received on Account
The Received on Account key is used to track cash received into the cash drawer or to record
loans to the cash drawer.
Register Number
The number of the register can be set and printed on each receipt. If the merchant uses more
than one register, or has more than one location, the register where a transaction took place
or report was taken is easily identified.
Single Item
The transaction is finalized automatically when a single item PLU is registered as the first
item in a sale. Single item status is used to speed transaction entry when an item is normally
sold in a one-item sale, for example, a pack of cigarettes, a newspaper or an admission ticket.
Split Pricing
Often merchants price items in multiples, for example 3 for $1. The register will compute
the price of items when the exact quantity is not purchased. If the customer chooses to buy 2
items at 3 for $1, enter 2, press the X/TIME key, enter 3, press the X/TIME key and then
enter the price and the PLU. The register will compute the price for the items purchased.
