Percent Key Operations
A total of five
%
functions are available.
%1
is located on the default keyboard. Your keyboard may
be different. More or less
%
keys may be located on the keyboard, or they may be located on one of
the function look up menu keys.
Each function is individually programmable to add or subtract, from an individual item or from a sale
total, amounts or percentages. You can also program the percentage key taxable or non-taxable, so
that sales taxes are calculated on the net, or the gross amount of the item or sale. You can also
program preset prices or percentages.
The operation examples in this section show the percentage key in a variety of configurations. See
"Function Key Programming"
in the
"Program Mode Programming"
chapter to assign a specific
function to each percentage key.
These keys will be pre-programmed to operate on EITHER
PLUs
(item) OR
SUBTOTALs
(sale),
but not both; EITHER
MINUS
(discount) OR
PLUS
(surcharges), but not both; EITHER
RATE
(percentage) OR
AMOUNT
(Dollar), but not both.
So, if you want to discount items but not every item in a sale, you will need two % keys. To discount
on the whole sale, you will need to press SUBTOTAL first.
