Single item entries

Department entries

For a merchandise classification, the cash register provides a maximum of 99 departments. To the
departments, group attributes such as taxable status are applied to items when they are entered.

• When using the department keys (for department 1 to 40)

For department 1 to 20, enter a unit price and press a department key. If you use a programmed unit price,
press a department key only.
For department 21 to 40, enter a unit price, press the

key and press a department key. If you use a

programmed unit price, press the

key and press a department key.

Less than the programmed upper limit amounts
When zero is entered, only the sales quantity is
added.

For the departments 21 through 40, press the
department shift key.

Please note if you press the same key after using the

key, it acts as a repeat entry. For

example, when you register an item of dept. 21 using the

key and then an item of dept. 1

using the preset unit price, you should use the department code entry key described below for the
dept. 1 item. If you just press the

key to register dept. 1 item, it will act as a repeat entry of

dept. 21 item.

• When using the department code entry key

Enter a department (dept.) code and press the

key, then enter a unit price and press the

key again. If

the dept. code is programmed to preset price entry style and a unit price is preset, the cash register will finish
its registration operation.

Less than the programmed upper limit
amounts
When zero is entered, only the sales
quantity is added.

PLU/subdepartment entries

For another merchandise classification, the cash register provides a maximum of 1800 PLUs/subdepartments.
PLUs are used to call up preset prices by a code entry. Subdepartments are used to classify merchandise into
smaller groups under the departments. Every PLU and subdepartment has a code from 1 to 1800, and should
belong to a department to obtain attributes of that department.
The cash register is pre-programmed to PLU mode and zero for unit price. To use PLU entries, their preset unit
prices should be previously programmed. (Refer to

page 34

To use subdepartment entries, change to subdepartment mode for the PLU codes.
