D-8 Customizing the DecisioNet System
Promotional Message Verifier
When the optional EPL Information Messaging System package is
installed, the Promotional Message Verifier starts with the other EPL
applications. The Promotional Message Verifier ensures that the
SmarTalkers accurately display promotions by comparing the
promotion information in the EPL Item table against the promotion
information in the PLU table. In a default system, a comparison is
made every 60 minutes. To change the timing, edit the start scripts and
change the espromovrf options to meet your requirements.
Changing the Promotional Message Verifier Time Interval
The default time is 60 minutes in the S90promovrf.bat file in the
Windows NT \epl\bin\scripts directory. Edit the batch file and set the
time frame to the desired length.

start /min ..\espromovrf -r 60
goto finish
