This tab is part of the larger Bulk Items application.
Option | Allowed Values | Description |
Standard Cost |
Any monetary value |
The cost to your organisation to buy the item, per unit. The unit size is determined from the Base Unit option. The system setting CostModeConcessions determines whether this price represents a tax-inclusive or -exclusive value. The Standard Cost as a percentage of the selling price is calculated automatically and displayed next to this field. |
Retail Price |
Any monetary value |
The selling price of the item, per unit. The unit size is determined from the Selling Unit option. The system setting PriceModeConcessions determines whether this selling price represents a tax-inclusive or exclusive value. Note: It is not necessary to enter a Retail Price for Component Items, unless your organisation uses Calculates Sales reports. |
Options Use Parent Item Price |
Cleared Selected |
If the checkbox is selected, the Item's child items inherit its selling price. If the checkbox is cleared, the prices for the child items can be set independently of the parent item. Example: An item small cola may have two child items; regular cola and diet cola. Either they can have the same price based on that of small cola, or diet cola may be configured more expensive than regular cola. Note: If the parent item is part of an item package, the item package price will be used. |
Variable Price Item |
Cleared Selected |
If the checkbox is selected, the Price of the Item will be entered by the POS Operator at purchase. A Variable Price Item will ignore the value in the Retail Price field configured on the item's maintenance form. Example: Items with this option selected may represent charitable donations, negotiated auditorium hire fees, discounts, and other items without a fixed price. Note: It is often appropriate to set a POS Securtiy Level for the selling of variable price items. |
Minimum |
Any monetary value |
For Variable Price Items, this field determines the lowest selling price that a POS Operator may enter for the Item. Note: This option is only available when Variable Price Item is selected. |
Maximum |
Any monetary value |
For Variable Price Items, this field determines the highest selling price that a POS Operator may enter for the Item. To allow POS operators to enter an unlimited value, enter a Maximum Value of 0. Note: This option is only available when Variable Price Item is selected. |
Discount Item |
Cleared Selected |
If the checkbox is selected, the Item represents a discount on a transaction, rather than goods or services sold. The Price of a Discount Item is subtracted from the value of a transaction, instead of being added it . POS prevents discount items from being added to a transaction when doing so would cause the value of the transaction to fall below 0. Note: Often the Variable Price Item field is also selected, and it may be appropriate to set a POS Securtiy Level for selling discount items. |
Item for Tab Adjustments |
Cleared Selected |
If the checkbox is selected, the Item will represent a Tab Adjustment. Any discounts applied to a POS Tab using the Adjust Tab button in POS are recorded as this item. It may be appropriate to use the System Setting SecurityDiscountButton to configure security for the Discount button. Note: Only one concession item can be configured with this option. Selecting this option automatically selects the Variable Price Item and Discount Item settings. |
Default to Total Tax value of Order |
Cleared Selected |
This option can be used to cancel out the tax of items in an order. Example: Some customers may be exempt from paying tax. If the checkbox is selected, when the Discount Item is added to the order, all other items in the order have their tax value written as Zero. This means that prices are calculated as net prices that include zero tax, rather than net prices with the tax value removed. Note: This option is only available when Discount Item is selected. |
Item for Order Comps |
Cleared Selected |
Identifies the item as a Comp for reporting purposes. Comp items appear as separate entries in the POS Order Window and receipts, allowing customers to see exactly what discount was applied and why. |
Enter as Percentage |
Cleared Selected |
If the checkbox is selected, the discount value will be calculated as a percentage of the total transaction value. The percentage can either be configured with a fixed or a maximum value. Note: The Enter as a Percentage option is only available when both Variable Price Item and Discount Item are selected. |
Prompt Operator up to |
Any number |
The POS Operator will be prompted to enter the percentage discount. If the percentage entered exceeds the specified value, the percentage discount will be limited to the configured maximum. To allow operators to enter unlimited discount percentages, enter a maximum of 0. Note: this field is only available if Enter as Percentage has been selected. |
Fixed Percentage |
Any number |
The transaction value will be discounted by the percentage indicated. The POS Operator will not be able to enter a percentage. Note: this field is only available if Enter as Percentage has been selected. |
Payment Group |
Any configured Payment Group |
Limits the availability of the item to purchases made using a specific Payment Group. |
Payment Type |
Any configured Payment Type |
Items can be configured so that they can only be purchased when specific Payment Types are used. Payment types can be linked with specific items on the Items, Tickets & Payment Vouchers tab in the Payment Type form. Items can't be linked to payment types that have tickets linked to them or the Tender Category Cash. |
Enforced |
Not Enforced Every Time Booking Pickup Only |
This field has the same value as the Enforce Payment Type on the Items and Payment Vouchers tab on the Payment Type's maintenance form. If Not Enforced is selected, the item can be purchased with any payment type. If Every Time is selected, the item can only be purchased with this payment type. If Booking Pickup Only is selected, when picking up a booking including this item, it can only be purchased with this payment type. If the item is purchased at POS, any payment type can be used. Note: Changing the configured value here will also change it in the Payment Type form, and vice versa. |
