How to Add or Change Merchandise Products Merchandise Products
9 – 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.
