Scanner Mode

Select whether or not you are using a barcode device during sales processing. Options are:

  • Yes – Micronet assumes that you are entering the item code via a barcode device and skips the quantity entry field
  • No – Micronet stops the cursor at the quantity field during sales processing.

 

Change Pricing

Select whether pricing can be changed during sales processing. Options are:

  • Yes – Micronet enables the Price and Discount fields on the Item Details screen in Docket Creation so users can change the sell price for an item and enter a discount
