Creating departments
A department is a group of machines within the store which
reflects the way the store operates, for example produce,
bakery, fresh meat, fish. Each department has its own set of
PLUs. The departmental PLU file is a subset of the main
product file.
Figure 4.10 Using departments
You can create up to 100 departments.
•
Assign a reference number from 0 to 99 and enter a name
for the department.
•
Program the department reference number into the PLU
(see section 6.4,).
Note:
A department can be used as a barcode lock,
see Part 2, Section 2 - Barcodes.
Allocating departments
When
you allocate a department to a machine, it becomes the
default department for that machine.
When you enter the PLU number to select a product, the
selected product will be the one assigned to the default
department for the machine.
