Product data

Modem Status

This form is displayed while the modem is being dialed, providing some feedback from the

process.

Selecting Hangup will stop the dialing and disconnect the modem.

Edit Products

This Form allows Editing of the Product (PLU and EAN) Data. This data is global, which

means it is common to all ECR's configured in POSUtility. This data can be entered here,

or retrieved from an ECR. Obviously, if you retrieve the data from an ECR it will overwrite

the data currently held in the database. Also be aware that if you have an ECR configured

for a 16 Alpha description for the Product Name and you send it to and call it back from an

ECR configured for an 8 Alpha Description, then your database will now have the

descriptions truncated to 8 Alphas! Please be careful. Product Data can then be

maintained using this forms options of Add, Edit and Delete.

If you try to Add a Product without any Departments existing, you will be advised and this

Form will be closed.

Depending on the type of registers in the current POSUtility Database, one of two

different Product Forms will be displayed. If there are either ER-A770's or UP-3300's an

extended form will be displayed. These ECR's have extra price and description fields.

Buttons:

Add

• Add Products to the database. Code, Description and Department must contain

data. If you try to leave any of these blank or enter a duplicate Code POSUtility

will advise you. Also, only Departments which exist can be used. A list of

available ones will be displayed in this field. The Add button will change to an

Ok button to accept the entered data, which can be done by either pressing

Enter or clicking the Ok with the mouse. Another record can then be added by

simply pressing Enter or clicking Add. Pressing Cancel of the ESC buttons will

cancel the Add. Other data fields that are left blank will be defaulted to 0.

Edit

• Edit the selected Product. Everything except the Code can be edited using this

button. The only way to change a Code is to Delete the Department. The Edit

button will change to an Ok button to accept the changes, which can be done by

either pressing Enter or clicking the Ok with the mouse. To edit the next record,

simply press Enter or click on Edit. To assist with editing, the cursor will go to

the Price field first as this is usually the most changed information. Pressing
