Remarks on the Program Function

By use of this program, you can maintain the data for the IP numbering of items, i.e. create new data records, modify or delete existing data. You can also view already stored data for information purposes. Items are linked to IP numbers and can therefore be called at the administration or POS terminal by use of these numbers.

The item search by IP number takes place at the POS terminal via the keyboard event "IPSEARCH". Further information on this topic can be found in the documentation Item Search by IP Number.

IP numbering is used by retailers in the clothing industry. IP (= Island Pacific) is part of the SVI Corporation.

The IP system is an item numbering pattern for products, preferably in the clothing industry, and is divided into the following 5 number sections:

Group	Producer	Style	Color	Size
9999	99999	9999	999	9999

The input values in the table are the maximum values. A masking and therefore the input limitation of the individual number sections can be predefined in the update program Branch -> Details 2 in the field IP Number Mask.

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 data 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 color, deactivated switches are lighter-colored.
