Tare Weight
A tare is the amount of weight accounted for by the container or packaging. By
entering a tare weight (as required by law in some areas) the weight of the container
is subtracted and only the true weight of the product is measured on the scale.
Tax Exempt
Tax exempt is used to exclude the tax from an entire sale.
Tax Shift
Tax shift keys are used to reverse the tax status of a PLU entry.
Tender
The method of register operation in which payment is made and the transaction is
finalized.
Transaction Number
A count appears at the bottom of each receipt and after each transaction on the
journal tape. This count increases by one with each transaction, report, or scan.
Void
A void operation will erase a previous item entry. It must be used inside of a sale
only.
Waste
The Waste function is used to start and end entries of items that are wasted. A waste
count is maintained for each item and inventory is adjusted.
WLU
WLU stands for Window Look Up. A WLU pops up and displays a list of items on
the operator screen. Three types of items that can be found on a Window Look-Up
(WLU): condiments, functions, and PLUs.
Typically, a WLU is used to display a list of instructions or choices associated with
an item. A WLU can be linked to a subsequent WLU in order to prompt an operator
through a sequence of selections. The default capacity of each WLU is 28 items; the
maximum capacity is 50 items.
