Using PLUs
Many of the goods and items you sell will have a unique PLU
(Product Look Up) number associated with them. The most
frequently used PLUs may have their own commodity key.
A
commodity key
is a programmable key which has been
assigned to a specific PLU. They are generally reserved for
the most frequently used PLUs.
A
department key
is a programmable key allowing you to
select PLUs assigned to departments other than the one
allocated to your machine.
The
PLU search key
is a programmable key allowing you to
enter the first few characters of the PLU description or the
PLU number. A list is displayed on the right hand side of the
screen.
If a department has been assigned to the machine you will
see the eight PLUs in the selected department that most
closely match the entry.
Use
and
to move up and down the list and
view any further PLUs in the list.
To view PLUs in other departments you must first select the
department.
Selecting a PLU
The way you select a PLU will depend on your machine
configuration. If the PLU is one assigned to the default
department for the machine you can:
•
type in the PLU number and press
•
type in the PLU number or press a commodity key and
wait for the machine to automatically display the PLU
information.
This is the method described in this handbook and is
known as timeout selection.
