Files must be configured in the ECR!

Delete Data
As
POSUtility
has been designed as a Maintenance Tool for a range of
SHARP
ECR's,
from time to time it will be necessary to remove some ECR's and/or the PLU and
Department Data from the Database. It would be wise to backup the Current Database
before doing this.
Department Data from the Database. It would be wise to backup the Current Database
before doing this.
If you are using multiple databases in sub-directories, these should be backed up.
There are a number of warnings issued by
POSUtility
before any deletion takes place. If
you delete ALL of the ECR's, you will be advised that this has happened and the ECR
related controls will be disabled. Once at least one ECR is added these controls will be
enabled again.

automatically and sent to the ECR centred.
To make a character Double Width, use the following key combination [SHIFT+6]. This
will insert a ^. Each character that you want to make Double Width must be preceded with
one of these characters. A look at what is retrieved from the ECR will give a better idea of
what is required.

POSUtility
POSUtility
was developed with the sole purpose of allowing users to easily duplicate and
change
SHARP
ECR configurations. This means that Data from a current ECR needs to
be RETRIEVED to the
POSUtility
Database before it can be edited and resent. This may
be as simple as doing a Master Reset on the ECR and then retrieving all the data, or
retrieving all the data from an ECR which is programmed the way you like. The only
exception here is that PLU and Department Data can be created using the appropriate edit
function, without having any ECR's configured.
retrieving all the data from an ECR which is programmed the way you like. The only
exception here is that PLU and Department Data can be created using the appropriate edit

POSUtility
is NOT a Stock Control program. It is an ECR Maintenance program with
some added features which allow the ECR to be 'X' and 'Z' Read back to a text file.
