Tax Shift; Triple Multiplication - Sam4s ER-180T Series Operator's And Programming Manual

Tax Shift

Tax shift keys are used to reverse the tax status of a PLU entry.
Tender
The method of register operation in which payment is made and the transaction is finalized.
Transaction Number
See consecutive number.
Void
A void operation will erase a previous item entry. It must be used inside of a sale only.
Tax Computation by Rate/Tax Computation by Table
In the simplest method of tax calculation, the register is set with a tax rate (or rates) and the
taxes are computed by a percentage calculation. In some cases, a tax that is entered as a
percentage does not follow exactly the tax charts that apply in your area (even if the tax chart
is based on a percentage). In these cases, we recommend that you enter your tax using tax
table programming. This method will match tax collection exactly to the break points of your
tax table.
Training Operation
Training operations do not add to department, PLU, or function key totals. This allows an
operator to practice making entries without updating sales totals. If you wish to perform
training operations, designate one of the clerks for training. You must clear (Z) the register
before the training clerk can be used. When that clerk is signed on, the register is in
"training mode".

Triple Multiplication

You can perform a sequential multiplication using the X/TIME key. For example four cases
of 24 beverages at $.89 each could be calculated by entering 4 X/TIME 24 X/TIME $.89 and
would calculate $85.44. If triple multiplication is selected, split pricing is not allowed.
VAT
Value-Added Tax (VAT) is a tax collection system where a portion of the item's sale price is
tax. VAT is different than most sales taxes where tax amounts are calculated and added-on to
the sale. Value added taxes are included in the item price. Most locales in the USA do not
use VAT, which is used in Canada and other nations.
X & Z Reports
X (eXamine) read reports without resetting and Z (Zero) reports read and reset your sales
totals.
