7. INQUIRIES
This chapter describes various inquiries made from each terminal to the Master Terminal and affect
data (sales data updating).
7.1. CASHIER OCCUPY INQUIRIES
When the “Floating Cashier” feature is selected and a Cashier Code is entered on a terminal, the
terminal inquires the cashier code corresponding to cashier code entered to the Master Terminal.
The Master Terminal searches the Cashier Table of the Cashier No. in the Cashier File.
When the Cashier No. exists and its table is not occupied by any other terminal, the Master
Terminal makes the cashier in the occupied status and sends the cashier table to the inquiring
terminal.
When the Cashier No. does not exist in the Master Terminal’s Cashier File, the Master Termi-
nal responds the message “CODE ERROR” (standard program; programmable) to the inquir-
ing terminal. When the Cashier Table is occupied by another terminal, the message “FILE
BUSY” (standard program; programmable) is responded instead.
AFFECT
When a sale entry is determined (i.e. finalized) on a terminal, the terminal sends AFFECT text
to the Master Terminal (and Backup Master Terminal) and updates the sales data (in the
Cashier Table) of the Master Terminal (and Backup Master Terminal).
CASHIER CANCEL INQUIRES (OCCUPY CANCEL)
When a Sign-OFF is operated on a terminal, the terminal inquires a CASHIER CANCEL to the
Master Terminal. The Master Terminal cancels the occupies status of the applicable cashier.
7.2. CUSTOMER FILE (CHECK TRACK) INQUIRIES
When the feature “Customer File (Check Track)” (instead of PB Manual Entry) is selected and a
PICK UP BALANCE (by [PICK UP BAL]) is entered on a terminal, the terminal inquires the
entered Customer File Code to the Master Terminal. The inquired Master Terminal searches the
Customer File Code in the Customer File Table.
When the Customer File Code exists, the Master Terminal responds the name and the previ-
ous balance of the Customer File to the inquiring terminal.
NEW CUSTOMER FILE INQUIRIES
When a NEW CUSTOMER FILE (by [CODE OPEN] key) is entered on a terminal, the termi-
nal inquires the new Customer File code entered to the Master Terminal. The Master Terminal
confirms that the inquired Customer File code does not exist, then adds it to the Customer File
table, and responds to the inquiring terminal that the code has been additionally set. (If a
Backup Master is connected, the code inquiry to and additional setting in the Backup Master
Terminal occur at the same time.)
AFFECT
When a Customer File entry is determined on a terminal, the terminal sends an AFFECT text
to the Master Terminal (and Backup Master Terminal), and updates the sales data of the
Master Terminal (and Backup Master Terminal).
NOTE: When the applicable file code does not exist on a Customer File Code inquiry (by [PICK
UP BAL]) or when the applicable file code exists on a New Customer File Code inquiry
(by [CODE OPEN]), the message “CODE ERROR” (standard program; programmable)
is displayed on the inquiring terminal.
