Procedure documentationConfiguring the Wild Card Search

 

You can search for a retail product description using single or multiple wild card search terms in the PLU Description Search tool. The default wild card search character is an asterisk (*). You can configure a single character of your choosing in the POS.ini to use as the wildcard instead.

The POS.ini allows you to change the functionality of the POS and the Store Manager applications. Each of the options in the POS.ini controls a function in the application. Therefore, when you change a POS.ini option value, you change the functionality.

Procedure

In the POS.ini file, specify a single character after the equal sign as follows:

ITEM_SEARCH_WILDCARD_CHAR=

The system uses the single character you specify as the wildcard search character instead of the asterisk.
