There are two parts to department programming.  Department status is set here.  Depending on 
whether you select open or preset department status is this section, you can also program either the 
open department entry limit or the preset department price.  See “Programming Department Entry 
Limit or Price” on page 46. 

Use this section to program the following status options:   

z

  Set negative departments that subtract from the sale, rather than normal positive departments 

which add to the sale.  

z

  Enforce the entry of a non-adding number before the department entry.  See “Non Add 

Number” on page 34 for operation sequences.   

z

  Disable the departments, so that entries are not allowed. 

z

  Choose Open or Preset departments.  Open departments accept amount entries.  Use open 

departments to enter different priced items into the same category.  Preset departments 
automatically register a preprogrammed price when the department key is pressed.  Use preset 
departments to register an individual item quickly and accurately.  For example, cigarette packs 
or food items can be assigned to departments as presets. 
 
When you select preset departments, you can also decide if the department can also accept open 
entries.  This option is referred to as “preset override”.    

z

  Set single item departments which automatically total as a cash sale immediately after the 

department entry.  Single item departments are used to speed up one item sales. 

z

  Select a tax status to determine whether sales tax is automatically added.   

Unless otherwise programmed, departments are positive, open, not taxable, not single item 
departments, and accept unlimited amounts (up to 7 digit entry).  Therefore, it is not necessary to 
program departments you wish to be open, positive, non-taxable, not single item, with no entry limit.
