Remarks on the Program Function
With this program, you can update the data of the intern MICROS Retail OSCAR POS application Alert, create a new data record, modify or delete existing data. You can also view the stored data for information purposes.
Depending on the program type, the individual programs are generally assigned to corresponding groups. The input mask for the programs of the corresponding group can vary because various data have to be updated for the program call-up, depending on the Program Type.
Note:
For the application of the Alert type, a
Process Unit of the Oscar Client type must be programmed. The name of
this application must be entered in the Program Name field (case-sensitive!).

Remarks on the Input Fields
This paragraph will provide a short overview over the options available for updating these basic data
Just like in almost any other program:
- The input mask may be different in your MICROS Retail OSCAR POS program depending on the set-up of the application. In some cases some input fields may be missing.
- Some input fields may contain default values or defined selection options; these cannot be updated.
- The input mask contains some fields that require an entry and others in which entries are optional.
- If the data record is updated via multi-page input masks, go to the dialog window by clicking on the appropriate buttons with <Mouse key 1>.
- The same procedure applies to call up another update program from this program.
- In some cases you may find that so-called "Switches" which - depending on the default - can be activated or deactivated with <Mouse key 1>. Activated switches are identified by their dark colour, deactivated switches are lighter-coloured.
