USING A STORED PLU VALUE FOR UNIT PRICE
Product Look-Up (PLU) numbers are used to store information about the most commonly used
items. Using SWZ, the PLU values can be stored as either cost per kilogram or cost per 100g.
During the weighing operation, the user can recall the cost per kilogram or per 100g of a
particular item very easily using the PLU values.
The individual PLU values should be entered against specific items before the weighing
process starts so that the desired PLU’s can be recalled during the weighing process.
