Remarks on program function

Note:

At present this program is only supported in certain MICROS Retail OSCAR POS projects.

The general parameters for the MICROS Retail OSCAR POS program can be updated with this program, i.e. programmed, changed or cleared. Data which has already been stored can also be displayed for information.

General parameters for the MICROS Retail OSCAR POS program are normally read in at the start of the application from file oscar.ini. This program therefore allows this file and additional program parameters to be stored in the MICROS Retail OSCAR POS database and to activate them by setting the option "Export environment".

Remarks on data fields

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:

• The entry mask for this program may differ in your MICROS Retail OSCAR POS program. Some data fields may be missing.
• There may be defaults or firmly defined selection options for some data fields. These cannot be updated in the current program.
• Fields with enforced entry defined are to be found in the entry masks as are fields where entry is optional.
• If the data record is updated over several pages of entry masks, the dialog window is reached by clicking on the appropriate button with <Mouse key 1>.
• The same procedure also applies to call up of another update program from this program.
• In some cases you may find so-called "Switches" which are activated or deactivated by the user with <Mouse key 1>, depending on the setting. Activated switches have a dark top, deactivated switches are lighter.
