	System Features


	* Real-time inventory tracking. Inventory is decremented every time an 
	  item is sold. Item menu pop provides instant knowledge of on hand stock.

	* Professional looking invoice printouts. A good dot matrix printer or an

	* Estimate saving & retrieval. Write up a quote, print it & save it.
	  Saves time when converting to invoices.

	* Full adjustment of on screen information. Quantity, price, line item 
	  price, labor hours/price, & discounts can be applied before committing
	  to invoice or when revising estimates.
	
	* Customer data/history capture. Your important client information is 
	  saved & updated with each invoice. CJPOS provides customer purchase 
	  history recall for viewing and can be printed.

	* ZIP / Postal Code capture. Every new ZIP code is remembered by the  
	  system. When a new customer is encountered with the same code, CJPOS
	  automatically inserts the city, state, & area code for that ZIP code.

	* A variety of reports: Daily Sales, Daily Payouts, Sales Analysis, 
	  Inventory information.

	Employee Maintenance

		 Adding or Editing Employees - A standard information screen is first
		 presented such as:

	1. Status : 
		The status level - PT, FT, AM, MG, DM determines the level of    
		access that the individual has for the system. For example to get to 
		this screen the default manager, # 1, MG, has a security level of 4.
		The MENUS.DBF database sets the security level required to do things 
		such as Employee Maintenance. The CJPOS system standard level for
		adding new stock, inventory adjustment, etc. is set at this level 4,
		or MG - Manager. 
	2. Password : 
		Used by the employee when accessing security sensitive
		areas of the system. Only they & their supervisor should know the
		password for the employee.

	Employee Maintenance

	3. Display On Screen :  
		If the District Manager or Manager does not want his name displayed in
		the employee list on screen.
		
	4. Inactive Date:
		Date the employee left or was terminated. An employee will remain in
		the system until the end of the fiscal year for tax & payroll reasons.
		Hence, a deleted employee really just becomes "inactive" until the end
		of the year.

	5. Payrate & Hourly/Salary:
		Presently has no effect until the payroll entry module is finished.

	6. Commision Rate:
		Will be used for future reports.

	Close Register

	To begin a new date the system must be closed daily. Closing the 
	register results in finalizing the register date records. The screen
	will reflect the REGISTER DATE, NOT THE COMPUTER SYSTEM DATE.

	Payouts

	Selecting 'Options' results in the following screen:

		For the retrieval of saved estimated several methods are allowed.
		Direct number entry, provide several letters of the customer last
		name, & finally a list of all estimates in the system. Once retrieved
		the estimate is on screen like any invoice. Estimates are NOT deleted
		until they are converted to invoices. Undesired estimates can be
		removed by: 
			1) Recall the estimate.
			2) Screen appears with option to continue with estimate load or
				to Delete the estimate.


	Save Estimate

		A customer quote can be saved as an estimate for later recall
		and finalizing. Incomplete invoices could also can be saved as 
		estimates. The estimate feature is especially useful for a large
		invoice; any modifications to the customer's original quote can be
		performed after recalling, modifying, & re-saving the estimate. 
		Therefore when the customer appears on the premises, the estimate
		is recalled, tender method is asked, & the invoice printed - the
		customer does not have to wait while you finalize their bill.

			the line entirely. 

		*  'Labor' option will change either the total hours or the total 
			price for that service, adjusting the hours accordingly. Presently
			the only way to change the demo labor rates is to use a dBASE file
			browser (available to all registered users).

		*  'Discount Single Item' will apply a discount to just one line of 
			the invoice. If chosen more than once the system will record the 
			sum total discount.

		* 'Employee Discounts' are for those businesses whom allow employee
		  purchases & provide a discount. The DISCOUNT.DBF controls the type
		  & amount of discounts. (dBase browser needed to modify)

		* 'Total Price / Discount' applies selected discount to the entire 
			receipt. Total Price will back figure the taxes & discounts 
			to arrive at the final gross price.

	History

	First recall the customer using one of three methods:
		'Last Name' , 'Phone Number' or 'Customer Number'
	For example, select the customer desired by using the 'Last Name' option. 
	In the case below the letters 'RYB' were entered and Ted Ryba was selected 
	from the customer list. The next screen appears with the date prompt. 
	It was changed to '01-01-93' which is the earliest possible date on this 
	install. The exact date is not neccesary. The report was then generated 
	to the screen. Hitting 'F5' will print it.

	EXAMPLE:

	Daily Sales

	The daily sales totals can be viewed & printed. The 'Options' on the 
	Daily Reports screen allows for printing current sales date, view/print a
	previous sales date, or creating a summary report of sales for any date 
	period as well. For the example below to create the summary 
	'Range Of Sales Dates' was selected. Then enter the desired date range
	was entered. In this case 03-01-95 was first, then 03-31-95 to do a
	report for March '95. It does not matter if the beginning date was not an
	actual sales day. 'Options' was chosen again, then  'Print Current Totals'
	to print the on screen report. When the summary report is generated a
	SALE_DAY.OUT file will be created for export to an outside source using 
	the export method selected in 'System Setup'.

	Change Price / Cost

	This screen below shows several important columns. The CJPOS system 
	allows multiple pricing; the 'Sell Price' is the total line item price.
	For example, the store sells 2 wombats for $ 19.99. The 'Qty @' column 
	would have a '2' in it. The 'Price' column would have '19.99'. If the 
	wombats cost the store $ 3 each then the 'Cost' would be '6.00'.

	Order Points / Order Amts.

	This option works with the 'Stock Printing Options' in determining 
	the stock items to be printed. Those stock items which you normally
	order from a warehouse but need in the POS system database would have 
	a 'Reorder Point' of -1 (anything less than zero). These non-stocked
	items are treated as 'dont care' by inventory print reports and will 
	not be printed if you chose not to. The 'Reorder Amount' & 'Vendor' 
	will used by future releases to automatically create a purchase order
	from the vendor to replenish stock.

	Stock Printing Options

	Selecting  'Inventory', 'Stock Printing Options' from the top 
	menu bar presents a department list of "Item Type" departments. Once
	the department is chosen a box such as below appears:
			 ++ 
			 +_                                     ++         
			                                                  
			    Print All Categories In Exhaust ?             
			                                                  
			          ++  ++                  
			             Yes       No                     
			          ++  ++                  
			 ++ 

	The POS system provides a choice of printing an entire department or 
	just a single category within that department. If 'No' is selected above
	all the categories for that department appear & a choice is made.
	Then several stock inventory print options are presented. 
		These Options Are:
		A. On Hand / Cost Of Stock
		B. Stock Prices / Costs
		C. Reordering Information

	For cases A or C , a box will appear:
			 ++ 
			 +_                  INVENTORY ON HAND                  ++         
			                                                                   
			  Print Only Items With ReOrder Points Greater Than 1 ?          
			                                                                   
			                  ++  ++                           
			                     Yes       No                              
			                  ++  ++                           
			 ++ 
	The system will treat items that have a Re-Order point of less than
	zero as "don't cares". Choosing 'Yes' above will only print those
	items that you wish to maintain regularly or actually stock in the
	store.

	The following examples display what data fields each report will 
	actually print.

	This report can be used to determine what items the store needs to order.
	In future releases the system will use this report to create a purchase 
	order from a vendor. When the vendor's shipment is received the file will 
	be recalled similar to a job estimate. After any adjustments  (cost, qty) 
	the order would be committed and the stock levels raised appropiately.

	Overall System Setup

	Screen # 1

	Basic store/company information on this first screen. Two lines on the
	receipt are provided for address; Address # 1 and # 2. Maximum length is
	40 characters for Company Receipt Name and the address lines. Company 
	phone number is a maximum of 16 characters.

	Screen # 2

		First, the tax rates for your locality. If your area does not tax 
	labor, then enter a ' 0 '. The "G.S.T. Rate" is for Canadian users; enter
	a '7' here. The "Customer Default State" would be your state or province; 
	the letters entered there are used when a new customer is added. 
		The "Consumables Charge" is a surcharge on all items in sale - 
	"labor type" charges are not counted. 
		The "Labor Unit Description" is normally 'Hrs.' unless in your 
	business you might use 'Days' - space rental would be an example. 
		The "Associate Commission" will be used in a future report.

	Screen # 3

		The 1st, 2nd, & 3rd "Markup Rate" are used by the system when adding
	new items to the system database. These values provide an approximate
	selling price for new items. These values are only there to aid you
	in calculating your retail price. Here is a suggestion: If you are 
	adding a lot of items in a certain department then change the markup 
	amounts here in 'Setup' while you are adding. This way you won't need
	a calculator at your side while you add.
		The "Next Invoice #" and "Next Estimate #" are the numbers printed
	on their respective receipts. CAUTION: THE POS CANNOT HANDLE TWO 
	SEPARATE RECEIPTS WITH THE SAME INVOICE NUMBER. This feature should only 
	be used to match your current invoice number or to start invoices at 
	a higher number; only go higher.
		The other counters, "Next Layaway #", "Next Stock Loaned #",  
	"Next Damages Out #", "Next Purchase Order #", "Next Transfer Out #",    
	and "Next Store Credit #" have the same caution as the invoice # but
	are not yet implemented into the system.

	Overall System Setup


	Screen # 4

		The "Bank Name" and "Bank Account #" will be used in future releases
	for gift certificate and check validation. The "Transfer Request Days"
	and "Receive Request Days" will be used in future releases. The 
	"Estimate Days Purge" is likewise not yet implemented but will be for
	removing saved estimates after a specified number of days. A setting of
	'0' will disable this feature.
		The widths values - "Department Desc. Width", "Category Desc. Width",
	and "SKU / Item Desc. Width" - control the appearance of the receipt, 
	screen, and data entry. 

		The default width settings are:
		
		Department Description Width - 12   * Maximum value is 12, Minimum=0
		Category   Description Width - 24   * Maximum value is 24, Minimum=4
		SKU/Items  Description Width - 12   * Maximum value is 30, Minimum=4
		
		THE SUM OF WIDTH VALUES CANNOT EXCEED 48.

	This allows the user to customize their install. Changing the 'Department'
	value to zero eliminates the department name from each line on the receipt
	and screen; freeing up space for the category & item descriptions.

	Screen # 5

		The "Caption For Quotes" is the message printed on estimates after the
	customer information. 
		The "Department Caption", "Category Caption", "Item Caption" and the 
	"Quantity Caption" can be changed to headings best fitting your particular 
	type of business. These headings appear on the screen in the exact 
	position they occupy on a printed receipt.
		Important to businesses using the customer information capture are the
	headings for extended customer information. Four fields are allowed, with
	the "Customer Descript #1" being the largest (30 characters) and can be
	assigned as uniquely important on the next screen. As an example, the beta
	tester of the POS system has "Customer Descript #1" defined as 
	'Make & Model'. For automotive related shops like his this feature allows 
	for customers to have multiple vehicles. The other descriptions - numbers
	2 thru 4 - can used to provide additional information. The maximum amount 
	of characters in these descriptions is 20.

	Overall System Setup


	Screen #6

		The "Customer Phone #1" and "Customer Phone #2" are normally setup as 
	'Home Phone' and 'Work Phone' respectively. The words entered here will
	appear on the customer information capture screen. 
		"Postal Caption" and "State Caption" can be changed from 'ZIP Code' & 
	'State' to 'Postal Code' & 'Province' for Canadian users.

		Each of the following are marked or unmarked using the spacebar. 
	An 'X' will enable the "switch". 
	
	* Multiple ____ per Customer : Determines if the POS will prompt & store
											 a customer twice or more if their "Customer
											 Descript #1" are different.

	* Log In Security Required   : Future release. Will require employee to log 
											 in their employee # after every sale.

	* Cashier Defaults As Salesperson: After tendering an invoice, the employee 
											 writing the invoice will be credited will 
											 the sale.

	* Individual Invoice Breakdown   : Allows for more than one employee to 
											 be credited with sale; prompting the cashier
											 to assign each individual for items sold on 
											 the invoice.

	* Allow Layaway Sales        : Future release will have provisions for 
											 handling layaway transactions.

	* Allow Employee Sales       : Future release will have provisions for 
											 handling employee sales as a separate 
											 transaction type.

	Most of the databases in use by the program are accessible within the 
	 POS system. However there are several which can only be modified by
	 using an Xbase browser - (This includes Microsoft Excel or Quattro. A 
	 BROWSE.EXE is available from Cuyahoga Computing). All of
	 the databases are of dBase III type.

	 Those that are not editable within the system:

				DISCOUNT - TYPE is 'E' for Employee disc, 'S' for single Item,
							  'T' for total invoice discounts. PERCENT is amount 
							  for the discount, a DESCRIPTION to describe it.
							  

				EMPLSTAT - Employee status levels used in Employee maintenance and
							  relates to levels set in MENUS.DBF for gaining/denying
							  access to certain program areas. The actual security
							  level is assigned in Employee Maint by using this
							  EMPLSTAT.DBF 
	 
				LABRATES - Labor or Services rates to be charged on invoices. The
							  file must have a minimum of 1 record. The DESCRIPTION
							  and the RATE per hour can be modified.

				MENUS    - Contains security levels & enables/disables menu
							  options.
				
				TENDTYPE - This file determines the names of tenders used as well
							  as the total available. The maximum is 14 types.   

				WEEKCAL  - File contains a calendar for the fiscal year. The demo
							  file matches the julian year.

				ZIPCODES - This file grows as customers are added. It stores the 
							  name of the city when an unknown ZIP /postal code is 
							  encountered for the first time.


	*  If the LEGALEST.TXT or LEGALRCP.TXT are removed multiple types of 
	receipt "taglines" can chosen from when a receipt is created. You 
	could create different files for different occasions with this method.
		 
	*  Included are example LEGALEST.TXT,  LEGALRCP.TXT files used at BCAS. 
	Examine these files and modify to for your application. These files 
	are in ASCII format and using any text editor such as EDIT can 
	modify them.

	
	Dealers can create a DEALER.TXT file & modify the CJPOS.BAT by 
	changing the line:
	CJPOS1   --> to --> CJPOS1 D   
	This will put your info upon program exit. This way you can set your
	own resale price & have the client contact you.
	

	The embedded print codes in this file are for a generic Epson style 
	printer. For HP Printers use . Move them to the
	first line of the file, replacing the Epson commands.
