Glossary of Terms SPS 1000 Program Manual
Recipe #
A menu-explosion type inventory system is set up when PLUs are assigned to a recipe
number.
Register Number
The register number is a programmable number, which prints on the receipt and journal tapes.
It identifies the electronic cash register the sale or report was performed on.
Stay-Down
When a function is programmed as a stay-down function, it is valid until changed. For
example, a stay-down clerk remains signed on until either signed off, or another clerk is
signed on.
Stock PLU
Stock PLUs track the quantity of the PLU item in stock. Each time the PLU is registered, a
whole unit subtracts from the stock counter. (Note that if multiplication or decimal
multiplication is used when the PLU is registered, the resulting quantity of activity will
subtract from the stock counter. Stock is maintained increments to the second decimal
position, i.e. "X.XX".)
Super Macro
The super macro records transaction keystrokes, including key position changes. The size of
the super macro, in keystrokes, is set in memory allocation (see "Memory Allocation" on
page 37.) When the super macro memory is full, the most recent entries will be added and
the oldest discarded. Use the super macro as a troubleshooting tool.
Surcharge (Item)
An item percent surcharge adds a percentage to the price of an item. This addition nets the
PLU total.
Surcharge (Sale)
A sale percent surcharge adds a percentage to the entire sale.
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 Except
Tax except is used to exclude the tax from an entire sale.
