This file must exist in the program directory (where POSUtility was installed), for POSUtility to start. If you wish to access multiple databases, use the Create Customer Database under the File Menu. [. . . ] This can be up to 16 characters and cannot be left blank. If you wish to use expanded characters (Double Size), do a 'SHIFT+^' before the character you want expanded. Note that this character takes up two places. Dept · The Product Department Number. This cannot be left blank and must exist in the Department Database. A list of available Departments will drop-down when you enter this field. Dept Description · The Department Description the Product is linked to. This is displayed only and cannot be edited. When Products are sent to an ECR, only the number of Prices that the ECR will accept will be sent. Kitchen Printer · The Kitchen Printer number. Promo Group · The SharpSmart Promotional Group. This can be either 0, 1 or 2. 23 Data grid (List) · This displays a list of Products from the database. These can be sorted by clicking on the Column Headings. The Column Heading Text will change to Blue to show the sort order. The Modified column identifies records which are new, or have been modified. Key Colour · The Key Colour can be selected for ECR's which support this feature e. g. Condiment Programming · Settings for the PLU related to its use as a Condiment can be selected here. The table it belongs to, whether is is only a Condiment only and its entry type. Tax Status · The Tax Status for the Department can be set here. Other Fields · For information on usage of the other selections for the Products, please consult the appropriate Sharp User Manual. As the Product Data is common to all ECR's in the current database, not all selections are applicable to all models. POSUtility will only send information to the ECR that it will accept, so setting a Key Colour for instance will have no affect on ECR's other than the Touch Screen Models. File Menu: · Product data can be printed from an option on the file Menu. Tools Menu: · Options on this menu allow you to 'Tick' ALL products as modified and also to 'UnTick' them. [. . . ] If you are adding PLU's, a list of available PLU's will be displayed. You can sort this list by clicking on the column headings. To add the currently highlighted PLU, DoubleClick on the row with the mouse. To delete from either Grid, press the DEL(ete) key. [. . . ]
