Single item entries

1. Department entries

The cash register provides a maximum of 50 departments for a merchandise classification. Group attributes, such as taxable status, are applied to items when they are entered to the departments.

• When using the department keys (for department 1 to 6)

For department 1 to 6, enter a unit price and press a department key. If you use a programmed unit price, press a department key only.

2. PLU/subdepartment entries

For another merchandise classification, the cash register provides a maximum of 1200 PLUs/subdepartments. PLUs are used to call up preset prices by pressing direct PLU keys or entering PLU codes with a press of the

pkey. Subdepartments are used to classify merchandise into smaller groups under the departments. Every PLU and subdepartment has a code from 1 to 1200, and should belong to a department to obtain

attributes of that department.

By default, the cash register is preprogrammed to be able to use 1 to 210 codes, and these 210 codes are set to PLU mode and zero for unit price.

To extend the number of PLU codes to 1200, please refer to “EJ memory type” on page 57, and for other PLU/subdepartment programming, refer to “PLU and Subdepartment Programming” on page 37.
