Procedure documentationConfigure Bottle Return Refund from a Redemption Receipt

 

This procedure describes how to configure the Empty Bottle Return function initiated by a bottle redemption receipt. Redemption receipts can be issued by empty bottle collection machines, or by a POS designated for empty bottle processing. They can be processed within a regular transaction with other items or in a separate transaction.

Procedure

To configure Empty Bottle Return processing from a redemption receipt you must do the following:

  1. In Non-merchandise configuration, create the following records:

    • 20: Bottle Deposit Claim — This Non-merchandise record is only used for bottle returns which are initiated when a redemption receipt is entered. It also initiates a request for verification of the XML contained in the barcode and requires both the Bottle Deposit Price From Barcode and Is Bottle Deposit settings to be enabled.

    • 21: Bottle Deposit — This Non-merchandise record is reserved for bottle return processing and is used to allow the cashier to enter the amount for a bottle return. It requires the Preset Price setting to be disabled, and the Is Bottle Deposit setting to be enabled.

    For more information, see Non-Merchandise: Data Capture.

  2. In Bar Code configuration, create a bar code definition for the bottle deposit bar code. Ensure that the Tender Amount field is defined.

  3. In Item Entry Control configuration, create a new record by doing the following:

    1. Define the length of the bar code

    2. Define the prefix of the bar code

    3. Create a link to Non Merch ID 20

    4. Assign the bar code created in Step 2.
