2. Basic Sales Functions

2.1 Signing on a Clerk

A clerk can be described in cash register terminology as the person who is assigned to the cash register. Every transaction made by that person is recorded and a report can be printed out at the end of a shift. The report will then show the total sales amount that each clerk registered.

The default factory setting is Clerk number 1. The user can change the Clerk in 4 distinct ways, depending upon how the cash register has been programmed.

Option 1: If a general Clerk Key exists on the keyboard, enter first the clerk number and then press the Clerk Key.

Example: Activate Clerk 5, press 5 followed by the Clerk Key.

The programmed clerk name will appear on the display. Option2:

Press the general Clerk Key on the keyboard. Depending on how many character lines the display has, the clerk names will be listed. Scroll down until the appropriate name has been found and press the Clerk Key again to confirm the selection.

Option3: You can also program the specific Clerk Key on the keyboard. Simply press the correct Clerk Key to activate that person.

Option4: A Clerk can also sign on by inserting the specific clerk key in the control lock.

Note: It is possible to enforce a compulsory clerk for each transaction. This simply means that the users have to identify themselves before every transaction.

2.2 Making a Sale Using an Open Department

An open department refers to a department with an undetermined selling price. Items which have not been programmed are categorized into such departments. The salesperson determines the price during registration.

Example: To enter a price of $2 for department 3, press the unit price including the cents, followed by the department key.

2.3 Making a Sale Using a Preset Dept./PLU

If a price has already been programmed in the cash register for a specific department or PLU, simply press the key. To ring up PLU’s which do not appear on the keyboard, press the PLU number followed by the PLU Key. If a PLU has a barcode programmed to it, then the Barcode number becomes the PLU Number.

Example: To ring up PLU 241, press the PLU number followed by the PLU Key.

2.3.1 Creating a PLU during a Sale

Occasionally, a salesperson may have to enter a new item, which has not been programmed into the cash register. In such a case, your cash register will automatically prompt you to create this item. Press the Subtotal Key to confirm or the Cancel Key to exit the prompt. Once confirmed the cash register will ask you for the price. Upon entry of the price, press the Subtotal Key again to confirm. Then, enter the department that the PLU is linked to, press Subtotal to confirm. If the cash register has been programmed to allow for new PLU name programming during registration, you will be presented with the chance to enter a name for the PLU you are creating. Alternatively, the PLU will inherit the name of the department that it is linked to.

Subtotal again once you are finished. The cash register will thereafter store the new PLU for future transactions.

Example: Creation of PLU 123, Cola, with a price of $1.50, linked to Department 3 with PLU programming active.

…then the display will prompt you to create, if PLU is not programmed.

Enter the price...

Enter the Department to be linked to...

And finally the PLU name Note: The name of the PLU has to be entered using the Letter Keys on your Keyboard

2.4 Ringing up Multiple items in a Sale

Instead of pressing the same item repeatedly, the salesperson can make use of the Multiplication Key. Enter the quantity first to be rung up, followed then by the Multiplication Key and then the item.

Example: To ring up an open department of $3.50 five times.

Example: To ring up a preset PLU 25 not programmed on the keyboard 3 times.

Example: To ring up a PLU with a barcode 60050779 three times.

Note: the bar code digits must be entered individually with the Number Keys.

2.5 Tendering a Sale

A sale has to be tendered for it to be valid. Several tendering keys may exist on the keyboard. The most common are CASH, CARD, and CHECK. Other tendering keys may be added to the keyboard. See Programming Tender Keys in the Programming Manual.

Example: To complete a cash sale, first press the Subtotal Key. Then enter the amount received, such as $10 from the customer, and press CASH. The display will then show the change that the customer will receive

To complete a credit card transaction, simply press the Tender Key CARD. The cash register will assume the Subtotal amount as the amount being tendered

3. Voiding and Negative Transactions

3.2 Correcting the Last Entry

The Error Correct Key (EC) is responsible for voiding the last item that the user rang up in a sale. This is normally the item that appears on the display. An error correct can only be used in a sale and can only void the last item. To void other items, refer to Voiding Items during a Sale.

3.3 Voiding Items during a Sale

Voiding refers to the removal of certain items from a sale, usually because of an incorrect entry. The majority of users have their cash registers programmed in such a way that only the managers are able to correct such entries. Managers have to physically enter a key into the control lock and turn it to the (M)anager position before any voids can be done (See Chapter 1.3). This also includes any other negative transactions, such as discounts and pay-outs. To void an item in the R position of the lock while under manager supervision, press the Void Key first and then the item to be voided.

Example: To void department 1 with an amount of $2.50.

Example: To void a PLU with a barcode 60050779.

To void an item under the managers supervision first turn the key lock to the (M)anager position. Then proceed with the void as explained above.

3.4 Refunding Items outside of a Sale

When items are being returned, a refund must be done on the cash register to record the item back into stock and refund the customer with some form of payment.

To refund an item, press the Refund Key/Return Key and then the item to be returned. Remember to press the Refund Key before each item, if more than one item is being returned.

Example: To cash refund PLU 5 and PLU 8.

Example: The customer is exchanging PLU 1 with PLU 2.

3.5 Giving Discounts during a Sale

Two forms of discount exist, namely percentage discount and amount discount. This can be further divided into net discount per item and gross discount per total sale. You can also preset or determine how much discount to give for any given sale.

• To give a discount for a single item, enter the item first, then enter the discount amount or percentage and press the Discount Key.

• If a discount has already been pre-programmed on the cash register, you only need to press the Discount Key.

• To give a discount for the entire sale, press the Subtotal Key first. Next, enter the discount percentage or amount, followed by the Discount Key. Press Subtotal again to view the new Subtotal amount.

3.6 Cancellation of a Sale

To cancel an entire sale, simply press the Cancel Key. The cash register will cancel all items that were rung up for that particular sale. Under manager supervision, turn the control lock to the (M)anager position and press the Cancel Key.

3.7 Voiding a Complete Sale

Voiding a complete sale performs the same function as a refund, in that items are being returned back in stock. The only difference between a transaction void and a refund is that in a refund, the Refund key must be pressed before each item. With transaction void, you need only press the key once, then the cash register remains in a negative mode until the transaction has been tendered.

To carry out a transaction void, press the Transaction Void key first, then enter all the articles to be voided out, and complete the sale with a payment key.

4. Advanced Sales Functions

4.1 Department Shifts

It is possible to have more than one department on the same key. This procedure, known as department shifts, allows the user to fit more departments onto the keyboard. The default shift is always Shift 1. To access Shift 2, simply press the Dept. Shift Key. The cash register will automatically return to Shift 1, or will remain on Shift 2 until the user changes the shift, depending on the flag set-up of the cash register (See programming manual).

4.2 PLU Price Shifts

The cash register allows for more than one selling price for each PLU. This is a useful function for special occasions, such as Happy Hour or item promotions. An automatic price shift can be programmed into the cash register or the user can manually change the price shift. The way in which the cash register is programmed will determine whether the price shift changes after:

a) each PLU b) each Sale c) remains on the same price level until manually changed

Example: To register PLU 5 with Price Level 2.

To return to Price Level 1, simply press the Price Shift Key again.

4.3 Foreign Currency Function

Foreign currency conversion is important for those countries that deal with more than one currency.

Example: If a sale was to be paid with a foreign currency that was programmed in the cash register, the user would first press the Subtotal Key followed by the appropriate Foreign Currency Key. The display will show the amount due in the foreign currency. After the amount has been tendered, the display will show the change due in the local currency.

4.4 Holding a cash Sale

The hold function allows the user to temporarily hold a sale, proceed to the next sale, and later call up and complete the original sale. This is useful in situations, where there are complications experienced by the purchaser, such as an article with no price, or where the purchaser does not have enough money, and holding the sale helps reduce time wasted at the counter. To hold a sale, simply press the Hold Key. To recall the sale, press the Hold Key again. Complete the sale and proceed with the next customer.

Note: make sure there are sales on hold before attempting to take Z-Reports. In such situations an error will occur. Tender all sales on hold before taking the report.

4.5 Receipt On/Off & Duplicate Receipt

If a receipt does not have to be produced, you can switch off the receipt printer by pressing the Receipt On/OFF Key. To reactivate the printer, simply press the Receipt On/OFF Key again. In cases where a receipt is required and the receipt printer has been switched off, the user can print a 2nd receipt. By pressing the Subtotal Key after a sale, the printer will produce a copy of the sale. Receipts can only be reprinted for the last sale.

4.6 Time and Date Functions

You can view the current time on the cash register by pressing the Multiplication Key while the control lock is in the (R)egister position. To reset the time and date, refer to the Programming Time and Date Functions in the Programming Manual.

4.7 No Sale Function

The No Sale function allows the user to open the cash drawer without registering a sale. You can view the number of times a No Sale function has been carried out in the X/Z reports. The No Sale Key can also be used as a reference key. To print a specific reference number on a receipt, enter the reference number and press the No Sale Key.

Example: To print a reference number 123 on the receipt.

4.8 Pay-Out and Received on Account

Money can be paid out of the cash drawer for special purposes, such as petty cash, etc. This is referred to as a Pay-Out (PO). To perform a pay-out, firstly enter the amount to be paid out, then press the Pay-Out Key (PO) and finally a Tender Key, i.e. CASH, CARD or Check. The accumulated PO total will appear in the financial reports.

Example: To make a $25 cash pay-out.

Conversely, money can also be received into the cash drawer. This transaction is known as Received on Account (RA). Adding more float to the cash drawer would be one example of Received on Account. To perform a RA transaction, first enter the amount received, then press the RA Key, and finally a Tender Key (CASH, CARD, or CHECK, etc). The accumulated RA total will appear in the financial report.

Example: To receive an amount of $50 cash.

4.9 Split Tendering Function

Depending upon whether the cash register allows for it, Split Tendering allows the operator to use more than one tender to close off a sale. This function is used when, for instance, half a sale is closed off in cash and the other half to a card.

Example: A subtotal of $10, of which $6 is paid in Cash and $4 is paid by Card.

Note: make sure that the entire total has been tendered before proceeding with the next sale.

4.10 Preset Price Override Function

In certain situations the user is required to override a preset price during a sales transaction. For this option to function, a PLU Ent Key must be programmed on the keyboard (See Programming Manual).

Example: To override the price for PLU 5 with a new price of 50c.

5. Hospitality Functions

5.1 Assigning a Waiter

See Chapter 2.1 Signing on a Clerk.

5.2 Opening a New/Existing Table

In order for the cash register to store a client’s order, the waiter must assign a table number. The cash register will store all articles entered for that specific person until the table has been paid. There are 2 ways to open a table.

Option1: Entering the table number and pressing Table # Example: To open Table 5

Option2: By pressing Table #, scrolling down until the table has been found, and pressing Table # again to make the selection.

Example:

Once a table has been opened, the user can begin entering the articles. Modifiers may also be programmed on the keyboard and can also be entered at this time. A modifier is an instruction to the kitchen as to how the food is to be prepared. Medium rare and sunny-side-up are 2 examples of modifiers. Since modifiers are registered by number, there are 2 methods of entering. Enter the number of the modifier and press the Modifier key, or press the Modifier Key and scroll down until the modifier has been found, and then repress the Modifier Key to make the selection from the display.

When the order has been entered, press the Table # Key. The order will now be printed out at any available kitchen printers, and the client’s balance will be updated. Follow this procedure for all orders that need to be entered in the cash register.

5.3 Printing the Bill and Closing off the Table

The default setting of the cash register is such that 2 bills need to be printed out for each client. If your set-up is otherwise, please consult your dealer for assistance.

The first bill that is printed out is referred to as the Statement. This can be printed at any time during the table transaction and produces a consolidated summary of all the items for the table. This printout is performed when the client requests the bill. To print this Statement, open the table, press the Print Table Key, followed by the Table# Key. The bill is clearly marked “NO INVOICE”, since this is just a Statement. You can still enter additional orders thereafter.

Example: To print the bill for Table 2 (Statement).

DATE

7.2 Easy Programming

The register has a special program mode which can used by a clerk with Manager authority or when the Central Lock is in the MANAGER ( M ) position. The mode is started by entering the mode number on the SUBTOTAL key. When the mode is not active ERROR#1 (Invalid Entry) is shown otherwise the register will print the mode on the receipt, journal and electronic journal.

When the register is in Easy Programming Mode you can only exit this mode by either turning the Central Lock, remove the Clerk Key or by pressing the SUBTOTAL key without entry.

In mode 1, 2, 3 or 4 you must:

1 - Enter the new data 2 - Press SUBTOTAL 3 - Press a direct PLU key or enter the number on the PLU# key. 4 - Continue with next entry or exit by pressing SUBTOTAL without entry.

MODE 1

In this mode you can program the Plu Prices. The price of the active level is programmed. When you want the program a price of another level (when active)

you must select the level first. MODE 2 In this mode you can program the Plu Cost Prices. MODE 3 In this mode you can program the first Plu Descriptor.

MODE 4 In this mode you can program the second Plu Descriptor. MODE 5 In this mode you can program the Plu Department Selection. MODE 6 In this mode you can add inventory to the PLU Inventory total when active. MODE 7 In this mode you can subtract inventory from the PLU Inventory total when active. MODE 8 In this mode you can change the Minimum PLU Inventory Level when active. MODE 100, 101, 102 and 103 These modes are used for PLU file maintenance when Scanning Codes are used.

7.3 Programming Files

Programming the individual files using the keyboard is done by using the UP, DOWN, PGUP, PGDN, TYPE (program type), X and CR (User Report) key.

You can only program when the Central Lock is in X, Z or T position. You start programming by either entering the FILE# directly on the TYPE key or by pressing the TYPE key without entry which will open the programming window and you can select the file you want to program. Files which are not active in the configuration of the application will not be shown. At the end of the line the File# number is also shown for reference. When the file has been selected the first record will automatically be displayed. You can select another record by entering the record number on the X key or by pressing the X without entry which will select the next record. The field you want to program can be selected by using the UP, DOWN, PGUP or PGDN keys. When the field is selected you can enter the new data and then press the CR (also User Report) key. When a field is modified it is printed on the Receipt, Journal and Electronic Journal. When the register is in Programming Mode you can only exit this mode by either turning the Central Lock, remove the Clerk Key or by pressing the TYPE key without entry.

Please refer to the WQPROG.DOC manual for further explanation of the fields in the individual files.

Programming Mode 100, 101, 102, 103 and 255 are used for PLU file maintenance when scanning is used.

7.4 Scanning

When scanning codes are activated in the configuration of the application it is possible to create and/or delete items on the cash-register either in Program Mode or during transaction when an item is not found. Furthermore there are some special maintenance procedures which are can be activated in Manager or programming mode.

It is possible to connect two scanners to the register. You can activate them by programming parameter 56 & 57 also check option# 78 for check digit verification when scanning.

CREATING ITEMS in Transaction Mode

When Option#79 is set the register will prompt for creation of an article when not

found. If you want to create it you must confirm by pressing the SUBTOTAL key or

abort by pressing CLEAR (Note that you can press the CLEAR key at any stage to

abort!!). The register will now prompt for:

1 - The PRICE which you must enter on the SUBTOTAL key 2 - The Department which you must enter on the SUBTOTAL key 3 - The Descriptor when Option# 80 is set which you must enter on the SUBTOTAL key

4 -Now the article is registered.

Note::From Release XX030605 on it is also possible to enter the PRICE directly on a fixed DEPARTMENT key instead of entering the price and department on the subtotal key.

CREATING ITEMS in Program Mode

When you are in Program Mode# 20 (PLU programming) you can scan the code or

enter the code on the X key. When not found the register will ask you for creation

which must be confirmed by pressing the CR (User Report) key. DELETING ITEMS in Program Mode

When you are in Program Mode# 20 (PLU programming) can also delete codes.

When you enter ZERO on the X key the register will ask you if you want to delete

the current code which must be confirmed by pressing the CR (User Report) key.

Note that the records are only marked for deletion so they will only free up their

space after PLU FILE MAINTENANCE. PLU FILE MAINTENANCE

When using scan codes the register uses internally an INDEX file which is sorted so the register can find a code very fast. Because the PLU file can grow very large (max

50000) when using scan codes the register will store the newly created articles in a separate UPDATE file which is located at the end of the PLU file. The maximum size of the UPDATE file is HALF of the FREE SPACE in the PLU file. When for example the free space is 100 you can create 50 new items before the register will give the message to re-index the file. After re-indexing the file the remaining free space is 50 so you can again create 25 new articles. You can continue until the free space is only 1 record.

Note that is important that the UPDATE file doesn’t grow to large (over 1000 articles) because this will have effect on the speed of creating new articles.

For maintenance of the PLU file there are the following commands:

100 – MERGE and DELETE

This command will MERGE the UPDATE and the BASE FILE and DELETE the articles marked for deletion. This command can be used when new item are created and items were deleted.

101 – MERGE

This command will MERGE the UPDATE and the BASE FILE. This command can be used when only new item are created.

102 – DELETE

This command will DELETE the articles marked for deletion. This command can be used items were only deleted.

103 – CHECK STATUS

This command will print and display the number of articles in the BASE and UPDATE file.

255 – CLEAR COMPLETE PLU FILE

This command will clear the complete PLU file. Note that PLU sales and inventory information is also cleared.

The command can be issued in programming mode on the TYPE key and in MANAGER mode on the SUBTOTAL key. Note that COMMAND 255 to clear to complete PLU file is only available in PROGRAM MODE.

PLU’S WITH SCANCODES ON KEYBOARD

When using scan codes it is also possible to put a PLU directly on the keyboard of the register. Because the key code as programmed in the key table contains the record number in the PLU Index file and not the scan code there are a few points you must keep in mind.

1 – PLU File Maintenance

Maintenance of the PLU file like creating and/or deleting PLU’s should be done either on the computer OR on the register but NOT ON BOTH because this will result in different Index files for the computer and register.

2 – Programming PLU keys in WQPROG

When programming PLU keys in WQPROG you must enter the scan code in the code field.

3 – Programming PLU keys on the Register

When programming PLU keys on the register you must enter the scan code in the key-programming mode. The register will automatically insert the correct index record number in the key table. The register will recognize the entry as a scan code when MORE then 5 digits are entered. Normal key codes have a value of maximal 5 digits. This means that when you want the program a PLU with scan code “123” you MUST enter “000123”. Suppose this PLU is located at record number 5 the register will put 10005 as key code which is also shown on the display. When you enter “123” the register will program key code “123”.

USING PLU’S WITH SCANCODES IN COMBINATION WITH BALANCES On the Balance the Index Number of the PLU is stored so at the moment it is NOT

ALLOWED to create or delete PLU when there are still balances open because the sequence of the index file will be changed which will result in wrong PLU on invoices.

7.5 Programming Network Features

7.5.1 Activating the Network

The network is activated by programming the REGISTER# in PARAMETER 53 and the NETWORK PORT in PARAMETER 89. There are two types of network possible:

RS-232 NETWORK

When you want to connect only 2 registers in a network you can also use a RS-232 network using the standard RS-232 ports in your register. The NETWORK PORT for RS232 can be any port except PORT# 6 which is fixed for the RS-485 network. The maximum BAUDRATE for PORT# 1 & 2 is 57600 (PARAMETER 2 or 3, value 6) and the maximum BAUDRATE for PORT# 3, 4 or 5 is 78125 (PARAMETER 4 or 5 or 6, value 7). It is advised to use the highest possible baud rate.

RS-485 NETWORK

When you want to connect more then 2 registers in a network you MUST use a RS-485 network which means you also need an RS-485 card installed in your register. The NETWORK PORT for RS-485 is fixed to PORT# 6 and the maximum BAUDRATE is 78125 (PARAMETER 7, value 7). Other possible baud rates are 52083 (value 6), 38400 (value 5), 19200 (value 4). It is advised to use the highest possible baud rate.

7.5.2 Network Size

The Network Size is programmed in PARAMETER 55 and is only required for Floating Balances and Consolidated report. Note that the register number must be sequential when you are using the network for floating balances and reporting. When you are only using the network for sharing printers and computer connection the network size is not required. The theoretical maximum is set to 24 registers.

7.5.3 Floating Balances

When you want to use the network for floating balances you must SET OPTION 92 and program the NETWORK SIZE so the register knows to which registers it should sent the balance information. The registers keep track of which balance is open on which register and will give ERROR# 44 (BALANCE STILL OPEN) when you try to print or pay a balance which is still open.

7.5.4 Floating Articles

It is possible to do PLU maintenance and have it sent automatically to all registers in the network. When you want to use the network for floating articles you must SET OPTION 93 and program the NETWORK SIZE so the register knows to which registers it should sent the article information. PLU maintenance means changing PLU information or creating/deleting PLU when using scan codes.

7.5.5 Sharing Printers

It is possible to share printers in the network. All printers (external and internal) in the network can be shared. When a printer is shared the register will automatically print the tickets at the END of the transaction because it has to sent a complete ticket to a shared printer. When you want to use a printer as a shared printer you MUST program the printer as a network printer in ALL registers which use this printer. In order to activate a printer as a network printer you must program the register and port to which the printer is connected. Note the port# 0 means internal printer. The port parameter of the printer programming (all printers) is RRP where RR is the register# (maximum 24) and P is the port# (0-6).

Example 1:

Internal thermal printer of REGISTER# 2 as a network receipt printer. PARAMETER 9 value 2 which means thermal internal PARAMETER 10 as 20 which means register#2 and port# 0. Note that you must program these values in all registers which use this printer.

Example 2:

External EPSON TM-88 printer of REGISTER# 1 port# 2 as a network KP1 printer. PARAMETER 21 value 3 which means EPSON TM-88 PARAMETER 22 as 12 which means register#1 and port# 2. Note that you must program these values in all registers which use this printer.

Note: When using a slip printer as shared network printer the register checks the paper when the transaction is closed. This means that it will always print on the slip when the option print on slip is activated even when compulsory slip is not set.

7.5.6 Network Reports

It is possible to set OPTION 1-8 in a USER REPORT which will automatically make this report a NETWORK report. Note that also the NETWORK SIZE (PARAMETER 55) must be programmed. Whenever a USER report is taken with this option set the register will check if all registers are online and take a consolidated report. When not all register are online the register will give an error an not take the report. You must first switch on the register or disable it with program mode 99.

It is also possible to take a USER REPORT as network report without setting OPTION 1-8. When you add 1000 to the report number the register will also take the USER report as a network report.

It is also possible to take a SYSTEM REPORT as network report When you add 10000000 to the system report code the register will also take the SYSTEM REPORT as a network report.

7.5.7 Program Mode 99

With program mode 99 it is possible to disable or enable a register in the network. In order to avoid the loss of data the registers in the network will try to sent print, balance and article data for ever when an error occurs until you disable the register using MODE 99. When you enable or disable a register in the network using mode 99 the register will transmit the information to all active registers in the network when NETWORK SIZE is set else it will only disable the register. You enter the mode by entering 99 on the TYPE key and the register will show the status of the registers in the network. When network size is not set the status of 24 (maximum) registers will be shown. By pressing the ENTER (CR) key you can toggle the status of the register.

Note: When you are enabling a register take care that is enabled in all connected registers because the register will not transmit the information to registers which are disabled.

7.6 Training Mode

Training mode allows for training on the cash register without registering what has been rung up. No reports will be affected by whatever has been rung up in Training Mode, and every receipt that is produced in training will be printed with a training message. A hash (#) will also appear on the left hand side of the display.

In order to access Training Mode, a pre-programmed training clerk must be activated. Training mode will remain activated until a new clerk is assigned. Training clerks can either be assigned in the ( R )egister or the ( P )rogramming position. Certain clerk flags permit the changing of training clerks in the P position only.

8. System Reports

All reports, whether x, z, or any financial, report are freely customizable and programmable by the user. Therefore, you will be able to include any information you consider essential. You can call up reports by turning the control lock key into the appropriate lock position, either X or Z. Upon positioning the key in the right location, the display will show a report type. You can now use the up/down keys to parse the list of reports on the display. Selection occurs when you enter the number of the report (shown to its right) followed by the Subtotal Key to confirm your choice.

Example: Printing Report #5 after having moved the control lock to the X or Z position. Use the Down Key to move down the list on the display until the report (5) is shown.

Option1: Scrolling

Option2: Entering the Report Number Directly

Note: The X or Z position merely determines, if the information will remain in storage after print out. The Z-Report erases the printed data from memory, while the X-Report retains the data. By pressing the CASH Key instead of the SUBTOTAL Key one can also call up corresponding User Reports.

8.1 User Report

As a user one can also compose specific reports that include several of the predefined reports. The type of reports that will appear can be set when programming the cash register (See Programming Manual). The user can then select this specific report by entering the User Report Number (also set when programming) followed by the Cash Key (CR).

Example: Assume the User Report is Report #5. CR usually corresponds with CASH.
