PLU (Price Look Up) Programming

The ER-290offers 200 PLUs (Price Look Ups) as a standard feature. Like departments PLUs (Price Look Ups) may be open or preset.

zPreset 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.

zUse open PLUs when you wish enter different priced items into a larger number of categories.

Programming PLU Status

There are two parts to PLU programming. PLU status is set here. Depending on whether you select open or preset PLU status is this section, you can also program either the open PLU entry limit or the preset PLU price. See “Programming PLU Entry Limit or Price” on page 64.

Use this section to program the following status options:

zSet negative PLUs that subtract from the sale, rather than normal positive PLUs which add to the sale.

zEnforce the entry of a non-adding number before the PLU entry. See “Non Add Number” on page 34 for operation sequences.

zDisable the PLUs, so that entries are not allowed.

zChoose Open or Preset PLUs.

zSet single item PLUs which automatically total as a cash sale immediately after the PLUs entry. Single item departments are used to speed up one item sales.

zSelect a tax status to determine whether sales tax is automatically added.
