Merchandise Products
7 – Merchandise Products
When you are creating products, you must make several choices about how you
will organize your system and how you will handle pricing. Things to consider
include:
• Do you want inventory levels shown in the product printout?
• Do merchandise products represent individual items, departments, or some
of each?
• Will the system use fixed prices or manually entered prices, or some of
each? Will user override be allowed for fixed prices?
How to Add or Change Merchandise Products
Use the following procedure to add a new product.
• Make sure the product information has been initialized with REMOVE
PRODUCT;A. Do not use this command if you have already loaded
product information into the system; it will clear all product information.
• Create a new product with LOAD PRODUCT;A. Each product is assigned
a product code, product name, category. If price override is allowed, or if
prices are to be entered at the time of the sale, products are assigned a low
and high price.
• Use LOAD PLU to enter price look ups for products that have default or
non-overridable prices.
• Use LOAD INVENTORY to enter the initial number of items or dollar
inventory amount for products that will use inventory tracking. For dollar
inventory, use ENABLE PRODUCT and specify type 4.
How to Create a New Merchandise Product
Use the command LOAD PRODUCT;A or LO PRO;A to create a new product.
The command without the A option changes an existing product. If you use the
command without the A option and name a product that does not already exist,
the terminal will print an error message.
