Perhaps MS should save 2 more function keys like F1 and F4 (as in F12 for
tender) four more important functions like: F1--cash tender and F4--Credit
card tender. Two other POS systems I know have that, very convenient.
Also, on the tender box, the total purchase should appear in the tender box
as default unless the cashier needs to change the amount. This saves time
and mistakes when it comes to credit card / voucher transaction (Unless I
didn't know how to set this default yet)
Two many little things in the RMS have to be done and/or undone in different
modedules, very confusing, time consuming and leaving the field wide open for
errors. That's why there're so many little questions going on!...

Kay,
RMS has 24 extra keys - Alt+F1 thru F12 and Alt+Ctrl+F1 thru F12. If that's
not enough, try http://www.xkeys.com/xkeys/xkstick.php for another 16 keys
or if more are needed, up to 58, search the website.
Up or down arrow to the proper tender box and press the + key on the number
pad. That tells RMS that you are tendering the full amount for that
specific tender.
If you don't like having to hit the up or down arrows, look up scan codes,
within tender types in Help

Please log in for more thread options Agreed, Jeff, but it's still two keys, not one. The most used fuction keys
for a retail business, after the scanner, are "cash tender" and "credit card
tender". They should be F1 and F4, in my opinion, separated by F3 for check
or something to avoid being too close to each other.
Btw, Ctl F4, the "returned" key seldom work unless you press them "exactly"
at the same time; Otherwise, you have to click to control and look for the F4
key....
Also, on customer record, the "delete" should be on the side, at the bottom
somewhere. Can you allow a cashier to create customer a record but not
delete it?...

Please log in for more thread options Oh, and thanks for the tips on the arrow and + keys. I haven't had time to
read all the books and the web help pages!...
It seemed that you ranted at me or something!..No offense taken cause I
didn't see it. I'm still appreciative for the tips. Cheers!....

Please log in for more thread options Kay,
I don't remember right now, but I think you can set them up exactly like you
want. As I described before, go to Database | Tender Types | go into a
Tender and the press F1 Help screen, look at the Scan Codes section.
How to program a single key for each tender type.
Hold the Ctrl, or for that matter, the Alt, the Shift, etc. keys down while
hitting the other key.
Yes, you can control the Delete button function through security. While in
POS, click on the lower of the two blank buttons, a lock should be
displayed. F7 and go to the Customer screen. Press Ctrl+S, the buttons on
the right will have blue boxes surrounding them. Click on the Delete
button, check the security level that you want to use. Do a Ctrl+S again,
escape back to the POS screen and click on the lock again.
Now set each cashier to that Security level you just set and the Delete
button will be grayed out for them.
You could also do it from Manager. File | Security | and then repeat the
above process. Database | Customer | Ctrl+S...
