Preset PLUs are used to register preset items. The most significant difference
between a preset department and a preset PLU is the method of registration. While
preset departments are registered by simply pressing the department key, preset PLUs
are registered by entering the PLU number and pressing the PLU key.
There are many possible uses for preset PLUs. Since there are many more PLUs than
departments, you may use PLUs when you wish to accurately price and count a larger
group of items. Possible uses include: menu items in a restaurant or items (such as
cigarettes) that you wish to inventory.
Use open PLUs when you wish to enter different priced items into a larger number of
categories.
Set negative PLUs that subtract from the sale, rather than normal positive PLUs which
add to the sale.
Enforce the entry of a non-adding number before the PLU entry. See "Non Add
Number" on page 44 for operation sequences.
Disable the PLUs, so that entries are not allowed.
Choose Open or Preset PLUs.
Set single item PLUs which automatically total as a cash sale immediately after the
department entry. Single item departments are used to speed up one item sales.
Select a tax status to determine whether sales tax is automatically added.
Select KP status if you wish an item to print at an optional kitchen printer.
