Feature of the Month- Version 7
May 2007
Entering a Package
Packages allow you to group items together
and sell them at a price that is usually lower than the price of the
individual items separately. The following document describes how to enter
items as a package.
-
To enter into the Inventory screen: POS/Inventory -> Inventory
-
Create a row in inventory for each item you want to make into a package.
Make sure the items being used in the package exist in inventory with
their own prices.
-
In the QTY field, enter the amount of each item that the package will
contain. In the example, the package contains one bath towel, one hand
towel, and one washcloth. In the screen shot below, notice the QTY is one
for each of these items defined in the package.
-
Enter the price for the entire package on the row for the first item in
the package
-
In order to create the package, you must have the DESC2 field displayed on
your screen. To get this, press the ALT key and press the number 6 at the
same time. This brings up a screen with the DESC2 field already added
into it.
-
In the DESC2 field in order for the system to know the items are part of a
package, you must enter a special sequence of characters. The first
special character to be used is the tilde (~) character in front of the
item. Enter the Item# of the first item in the package, followed by a
slash (/) and the Item# of the first item below where you are that is part
of the package (we are making a circular reference, where each item
references the one below it and the last item references the first item).
-
ESC to exit.
-
Enter POS/INVENTORY -> Point of Sale -> Invoice
-
Enter any of the item numbers used in the package. Once the package has
been defined properly, entering any of the item numbers of the package
will allow the system to pull up the package description and all the items
associated with that package. Notice that the only price displayed is the
price of the package which we defined on the Inventory screen.
