Check Tracking Operations
Overview
The NR-500 Series can employ a manual previous balance, hard check, or soft check
system. (You must select hard or soft check posting in memory allocation programming -
the default selection is soft.)
Options
For hard or soft check operations, the following tracking options are available:
For soft check operations, the following option is available:
60 • Operations
If manual previous balance is selected, the check balance is not saved in
•
memory and is input manually by the operator (use the PBAL key).
If a hard check system is selected, only the previous balance is maintained in
•
memory.
If a soft check system is selected, the check detail is kept in memory until the
•
check is paid. (The maximum size of the soft check is set in memory allocation
programming.)
Tracking by manually entering the check number. (The number of digits in the
•
check number may be set from 0-9, with zero meaning no fixed length.)
Tracking by automatically assigning a check number. The starting check is
•
always #1.
Enforcing entry of a table number, where a check number is also assigned,
•
allows the check balance to be recalled by either the check or table number.
Multiple checks may be assigned at the same table. (If there are multiple
checks assigned to the same table, an attempt to recall by table number will
recall the check with the lowest number.)
The check number can be scanned from a printed bar code. For example, a bar
•
code can be printed on a customer identification badge.
Consolidation of like items can be selected for guest check printing. For
•
example, if three rounds of drinks are served, the check will print "3 TAP
BEER" rather than "1 TAP BEER" three times.
