Procedure documentationDefining User Flags, Taxes and Itemizers

Procedure

Use this procedure to maintain information about user flags, taxes and itemizers for a PLU.

  1. List the PLUs, see Listing PLUs.

  2. Select a PLU, and then click Open.

  3. On the PLU window, click the User Flags, Taxes & Itemizers tab.

  4. Below User Flags, in the numbered fields, select the user flag options to which the item belongs. For more information about these options, see User Flags and Options.

  5. Below Apply Tax..., select the taxes to be applied to the item when cashiers enter the item into a transaction. For more information, see Taxes.”

  6. Below Itemizers, to define the itemizers to be applied to the item, check up to four itemizers to restrict the tenders that a customer can use to pay for the item. You do not explicitly set up itemizers, you just assign itemizers to tenders and to items, and if they match, the item can be purchased with the tender. For example, if the tender food stamps has itemizer 2, and PLU 456953545 has itemizer 2, a customer can pay for the item with food stamps. If PLU 35687458 has itemizer 1, a customer cannot pay for it with food stamps. You can use the Itemizer Taxes 1-4 check boxes on this window to assign taxes to the item based on the itemizer applied to it. Your head office uses the Configurator to assign itemizers to tenders.

  7. Beside each itemizer you selected, to define the taxes that are applied to the item, select check boxes to assign taxes to the itemizers applied to the item. For example, assume that PLU 456953545 is assigned itemizers 1 and 3, and itemizer 1 is assigned taxes 1 and 2, and itemizer 3 is assigned tax 2. The tender cash has itemizer 1, and food stamps have itemizer 3. If the customer pays for the item with cash, tax 1 and 2 is applied. If the customer pays for the item with food stamps, only tax 2 is applied. If you want to assign taxes to items in the department based on the tender the customer uses to pay for them, you can use these fields. If you want to apply the same taxes to the items, regardless of the tender used to pay for them, you can choose Tax 1-4 in the PLU Maintenance window. For more information, see Taxes.
