SETTING BATCH OPTIONS

You can select Batch Options to change which prompts appear during Batch Entry mode and set default values for those prompts. Customizing which prompts appear during batch entry can reduce the time it takes to enter data for a format.

If a knife is not installed, you can prevent those prompts from appearing during batch entry mode. If you set a new default value for an option, that value is used even if the prompt is not displayed. If you do not change a default value for an option, the system default is used if the prompt is not displayed.
