Select “CLOSE STORE” from the OPXZ mode window and press the e key. • You[...]

8 In the IRC system, the following two types of clerk file systems are available: a centralized system and an individual system. In the centralized clerk file system, the master manages transaction data on clerks within the IRC system. In the individual clerk file system, each machine manages its clerk transaction data. In choosing the type of cler[...]

9 1) When the clerk signs on at a machine other than the one used in his or her previous operation: In this case, the overlapped clerk data is sent from the master to the satellite (transfer of overlapped clerk data). 2) When the clerk signs on at the same satellite as the one used in his or her previous operation: In this case, no data transfer oc[...]

10 The sign-on operation is intended to assign a clerk to a machine (satellite/master) and enable him or her to make registrations at the machine. If a clerk successfully signs on at a machine, his or her clerk code appears on the LCD of the machine. Sign-on procedure (This procedure is the same as for clerk assignment at a standalone machine.) Cle[...]

11 A clerk sign-on report can be generated at the master. This report is used to know which clerks have signed on at which machines. Report generation procedure 1.
