 Setup considerations

In the Store Record, Enter R in the field, "(F)ine dn,(R)etail, f(A)st".  This is what the system to Retail.  If you will scan items and use the touch screen, make sure to type the cap letter I in the field "special code".   Otherwise you can leave the field blank.
           
If your POS items  are created from Inventory item setup , a configuration might be required if you want those items available on the POS screen as well as from scanner or keyboard setup. By default they import into POS with "Y" in the menu pricing fields, meaning they are not shown on the POS screens.  For the items to show on the screen you need to enter "A" beside the menu price.   They can be imported from Inventory to POS with "A" via a MENUINI configuration option.  A will make them available on the POS screen as long as the item or category is set up in the keyboard (item button) setup for that menu and terminal ID. 

Some of the features in the Execu/Touch Food & Beverage mode are not available in the Retail mode.  Examples include table selection, split checks, credit card preauthorization, and tip entry.

You can use a touch screen or scanner to enter retail items.  Without a touch screen or scanner you can use your mouse to click the item on the screen you can type the item code.  Wine cellars often run in Retail mode for standalone sales, but can operate in Fine Dining for dinner sales if separate POS stores (companies) are set up.
