The program description deals with the following:
This program – started via Application -> Organisation -> Branch can be used to update EAN parameters. These parameters will be used whenever an EAN shall be scanned at the cash register that contains a special field type, e.g. price, weight etc. If an EAN does not contain such field type, no EAN parameter will be necessary. EAN parameters are not restricted to use with items, in addition, EAN parameters can also be specified for departments and customers.
An EAN number consists of different parts:
The system uses the identification to recognize what kind of EAN number it is. It differs between
The type of EAN specifies how the EAN number must be split to read it correctly.
In addition to structuring the EAN, this program can be used to decide which key will be used to finalize the EAN processing and whether bocking shall be made on item or department level.
The following description deals with all available options for update of this basic data.
As with nearly all other programs the following also applies here:
Entry range permitted: numeric, 1 - 9999
Number of the company for which the EAN parameter shall be defined.
Entry range permitted: numeric, 1 - 99999
Number of the branch for which the EAN parameters shall be valid.
Entry range permitted: alphanumeric max. 14 pos.
Enter the universal identification number of the EAN. The identification number is part of the EAN. Each item will be identified via the identification number (e.g. 21 for weight items, 24 for department with sales, 26 for no. Of pieces, 27 for package price, 434/439 for press code with full or reduced VAT rate etc.) and therefore the read data can be processed.
The graphics show the construction
Entry range permitted: alphanumeric max. 20 pos.
During creation, enter the name of the EAN type here. It should be descriptive (e.g. EAN 24, EAN 25, weight item, press code 7 % etc.).
Entry range permitted: numeric, 1 - 99
Enter maximum number of digits of the EAN. Default value is 13. However, you can overwrite the number.
Note:
Entry range permitted: alphanumeric max. 20 pos.
This entry decides how the item will be booked, in standard case as item or as department. Enter the corresponding key code here. Keep in mind that it does not lead to a possibly existing entry under Book to PLU/Dept.. While frequently items will be booked viy PLU, journals (EAN press code) will be booked usually via dept. The entry depends on the retail philosophy of your branch.
You find further examples under:
You find a listing of key codes under
Entry range permitted: decimal, max. 10 digits, no decimal places
If an item shall be booked on dept (e.g. journals, see EAN press code), enter the department number here. Therefore these journals will not be created as Item . Due to the specific EAN, the system identifies press items and books the price contained within the EAN on the corresponding department.
You find examples for parameter settings under Parameter Settings EAN Code (Weight Items) and Parameter Settings: EAN Press Codes (Sales Price in Code).
Entry range permitted: numeric, 0 - 98
Enter the starting position of the 1st field of the EAN within the whole number, e.g. starting at the 3rd position. Keep in mind that position start with 0 (Example: Entry 2 = 3rd position).
Within the graphics EAN Code and EAN Press Code, the structure of different EAN codes will be presented with an example.
You find examples for parameterization zu Parametrierungen under Parameter Settings EAN Code (Weight Items) and Parameter Settings: EAN Press Codes (Sales Price in Code).
Entry range permitted: numeric, max. 20
Digit count of 1st field.
Entry range permitted: numeric, 0 - 15
This value specifies how many zeroes shall be appended to the field length.
Note:
For example, if this field is a price field, you can ensure the use of the correct number of
decimal places by appending of zeroes.
Example:
If field 1 has length 5 and the value 12345 would be within the EAN code, in case of a payment with two
decimal places, a price of 123.45 Euro would be read. To calculate the correct price, two zeroes will
be appended resulting in the correct price of 12345.00 Euro.
Division by 10, 100, 1000 etc. will be specified by the decimal places of the payment type.
Entry range permitted: numeric, 0 - 98
Enter the starting position of the 2nd field of the EAN within the whole number, e.g. starting at the 8th position. Keep in mind that position start with 0 (Example: Entry 7 = 8th position).
Entry range permitted: numeric, max. 20
No. of digits of the 2nd part value contained in the EAN code.
Field with firmly defined selection options
The system offers eight types:

Example: 80383000000399 -> Price 3.99
80383000006299 -> Price 62.99

Button active: This EAN parameter set (for deposit receipts, coupons, vouchers etc.)
will exclusively be used by POS Vs Coupon reader.
Button deactivated: This EAN parameter set (for deposit receipts, coupons, vouchers etc.)
will not be used by POS Vs Coupon reader.
Note
This option must be activated if deposit receipts, coupons, vouchers etc. will exclusively be scanned and captured by the
POS Vs Coupon-Leser. If a coupon reader has been configured at the SCO, such bar codes can not be
scanned with a normal scanner any longer (=>
error message). Alternativly such bar codes can be configured directly at the SCO.

Entry range permitted: numeric, 0 - 999
Enter the number of a payment type if field 2 shall be interpreted as price in a paymet type other than basic payment type. Precondition is that field Type field 2 contains type Price.
