Options

Surcharge

Select this option if the rate or amount is a surcharge and should be added to the price. If this option is not enabled, the entry will be treated as a discount and reduce the price.

Amount Discount

Select this option if this is an amount discount/surcharge and not a percentage discount/surcharge.

Fixed Discount

Select this option if this is a fixed percentage or amount which can not be overridden. If this option is enabled attempting to override the percentage or amount and pressing the discount key will result in an "Invalid Sequence" message. If this option is disabled, users are allowed to enter a percentage or amount before pressing the discount key to override the actual discount applied.

Item Discount

Select this option if this discount is to be linked to the last item entered. If this option is enabled, pressing the discount key will result in an "Invalid Sequence" message if there are no current transaction entries or the last entry was not an item sale. If this option and the Subtotal Discount option are both disabled, pressing the discount key will always result in an "Invalid Sequence" message. Discounts should either be set up as Item discounts, Subtotal discounts or Both. If this option is enabled and the last entry made was an item sale, multiple item discounts may be applied to the same item.

Subtotal Discount

Select this option if the discount should be applied to the calculated subtotal. If this option is enabled, pressing the discount key will result in an "Invalid Sequence" message if the last entry was not a Subtotal. If this option and the Subtotal Discount option are both not enabled, pressing the discount key will always result in an "Invalid Sequence" message. Discounts should either be set up as Item discounts, Subtotal discounts or Both. If this option is enabled and the last entry made was a subtotal, multiple subtotal discounts may be applied to the same subtotal.

Print Percentage

Select this option if the discount rate should be displayed and printed on the receipt as a percentage.

Manager Required

Select this option if the user requires managerial rights. If the user does not have managerial rights, pressing the discount key will display a "Manager Required" message. Managerial override may be accessed by pressing the USR key and temporarily logging in as a user with managerial rights.
