Corrections Maintenance

 

Corrections Maintenance allows you to define the type of corrections allowed on your GoPOS systems.

The maintenance screen is divided into the following three sections:

Maintenance Grid

The grid area displays the currently defined corrections. All fields are display-only and all modifications to corrections must be done by selecting the row and modifying the fields in the data entry section. Once the focus is within the grid area, you may use the arrow-up and arrow-down keys to navigate through each of the rows. All values for the selected item will be displayed dynamically in the data entry section.

 

 

Select All

Clicking on the upper left corner of the grid will select all corrections. To select multiple contiguous rows, select the first row then press down the SHIFT key on your keyboard and while the SHIFT key is pressed, select the last row in your range. To select multiple rows that are not contiguous, select the first row then press down the CTRL key on your keyboard and while the the CTRL key is pressed, select each subsequent rows that you want to include in the selection. Once you are done selecting all your rows, you can release the CTRL key. All data edits or option changes will be applied to all selected rows. Pressing on the Delete button while in multi-select mode will delete all selected corrections.

Item Row Maintenance

Right clicking on any of the row numbers will display a pop-up menu that will allow you Delete, Insert or Duplicate a row. Rows may also be deleted, inserted or duplicated by using the delete, insert or duplicate buttons in the buttons area.

Column Sort

Clicking on a column header will sort the rows either in ascending or descending order, A small arrow at the top of the column will point up for ascending or down for descending order.

 

Data Entry

The data entry area dynamically displays the currently selected correction.

 

 

Correction Id

Enter a unique integer value to identify the correction. Required field. Duplicates not allowed. When modifying Correction Ids, a warning message will be displayed indicating that any references to the correction will be lost when the changes are saved.

Correction Type

Select one of the supported correction types:

 

Error Correction

This will clear the last transaction entry made. Any attempt to error correct previous transaction entries will result in an "Invalid Sequence" message. If an item is linked to another product or to a modifier group, the error correction will only apply to the linked item and not the parent item.

Void

This will reverse an item within the current transaction. The user must press the void key and then enter an existing, non voided, item in the current transaction. Pressing Void will place the register in "Void" mode, indicated by "Vd" displayed in the upper display section of the GoPOS register. Pressing Clear will cancel the void and return the register in normal mode. If you attempt to void an item that is not in the current transaction an "Error: Unsold Item" message will be displayed. If you attempt to void an item that has already been completely voided (i.e zero quantity of that item remain in the transaction), a "Void quantity greater than sold" message will be displayed.

Refund

All items may be refunded. Pressing Refund will place the register in "Refund" mode, indicated by "Rf" displayed in the upper display section of the GoPOS register. Pressing Clear will cancel the refund and return the register in normal mode. When in "Refund" mode, the next item entered will result in a negative entry.

Cancel

The entire transaction may be cancelled at any time. All entries in the transaction will be reversed and a receipt will be printed showing the original and cancelled entries. The user may then press the clear key or simply start entering a new transaction. If Setting 65 - "Print cancelled transactions on the receipt" is disabled, no receipt will be printed.

Tender Correction

This will allow you to reverse and correct any previously entered payment. You must be at the start of a transaction. Pressing Tender Correction in the middle of a transaction will display a "Please finish the current transaction" message. Press Tender Correction or enter the Paid Out amount then press Tender Correction. A drop down list of all available tenders will be displayed. Enter the Paid Out Amount and select the tender for the PO.  Enter Received Amount and select the tender for the RA. You must enter the same amount received as paid out. If the RA amount is less than the PO amount, "short" will be displayed along with the remaining amount to cover. You may not enter an amount greater than the PO or amount remaining.

Transaction Void

This will allow you to void and reverse any previously entered transaction. You must be at the start of a transaction. Pressing Transaction Void in the middle of a transaction will display a "Please finish the current transaction" message. Pressing Transaction Void will place the register in "Transaction Void" mode, indicated by "Tv" displayed in the upper display section of the GoPOS register. Pressing Clear will cancel the transaction void and return the register in normal mode. When in "Tv" mode, or in normal mode at the start of a transaction, enter the transaction number, including all leading and trailing zeros, of the transaction you wish to void and press on "Transaction Void". If the transaction entered is found, all entries in the transaction are reversed and a new receipt is printed. If the transaction number entered is not found, a "Transaction not found" message is displayed.

Delete

This will delete all items that are selected and highlighted in the current transaction. Transaction entries may be selected for deletion by pressing directly on the entry. If an item is deleted, all linked items or modifiers will also be deleted. Individual linked items or modifiers may be selected and highlighted and deleted without deleting the parent item.
