By-Weight
PLUs are priced as
price-per-weight;
for example, $3.99/lb or $1.99/kg. You must weigh these
PLUs before you can execute a sales transaction.
By-Weight
PLUs can have a TARE weight, a Sale
Weight, and Sale Price for discounting.
This includes ALL food that is sold by weight.
By-Count
PLUs are priced as
pieces-for-price;
for example, 3 FOR $3.99. Before you execute a
By-Count
sale transaction you may specify a Quantity so as to be able to multiply and do split pricing; for
example, 6 AT 3 FOR $1.00 gives you a Total Price of $2.00. You must have a QTY, PIECE, and PRICE all
greater than 0 before you can execute a sales transaction.
By-Count
PLUs can have a Net-Weight
Statement (in ounces or grams), a Sale Count, and Sale Price for discounting.
This includes ALL food
that is NOT sold by weight.
Non-Food
PLUs are priced a
Straight-price;
for example, $3.99. You must have a Total Price greater
than 0 before you can execute a sales transaction.
This includes ALL NON-FOOD items.
NOTE:
ALL of the label formats embedded in the scale are compliant.
