Printer section: The Preview Maximized option is set to on by default, and is used to determine the Report application's default Report Viewer window size. When selected, reports open "Full Screen". When not selected, reports will open without using the entire screen area. Re-Init Printer: Some printer drivers do not re-initialize the printer between print jobs. For example, this means that if a previous print job was printed in "Landscape", the next job will also print that way unless the printer is reset. Select this option to force the printer driver to re-initialize to default settings for every print job it receives from Symphony Pro. The Default selection is used to define that reports will be directed to the default windows printer. If you prefer using a different printer for reports press the Select button and choose the printer. Note that you can set a specific printer for any report that will override the settings you make here. Refer to the report properties set-up for information on how to set a different printer for a specific report.

Auto Declare: The Auto declare option should be set to on if cashiers or other management personnel do not declare drawer amounts manually. When set to on, the system will force the declared amounts to be the same as the in drawer amounts collected by the system. This way, reports will balance by showing the in drawer amounts as the actual declared amounts, leaving no Over / Short. When the Auto declare is not set to on, reports will show Over / Short amounts, and the report will not balance until the manual declaration of in drawer amounts is performed from within the Entry module's Pickup and Loan option. Please see the Entry module's help section in this manual for more about using pickups, loans and manual declarations

Cost / Price Calculation: This option determines how the Maintenance application will calculate prices from the cost. Selecting Markup / % of cost uses the number indicated in the Price tab's price calculation field as the percentage of the cost to add on top of the cost to obtain a retail price. The Margin / % Profit setting uses the number indicated in the Price tab's price calculation field as the target profit margin, which is the profit per sale divided by the total sale.

For example: An item costs $1.00, and the item sells for $1.50. The Markup is $0.50 or 50% of the cost.

The Margin is the profit ($0.50) expressed as a percentage of the total sale, or 33% of the selling price.

NOTE: It is important to remember that if you change this setting, you must close the Maintenance application before the changes will take effect.
