25 Number Look Up (NLU)

A number look up (NLU) is a touchscreen button that allows workstation operators to access a numbered list of items. The workstation operator can select one of the following items in the list or enter the relevant NLU number to apply the item to the transaction:
  • Discounts

  • Main Levels

  • Service Charges

  • Sub Levels

  • Tender/Media

If you want items to appear in NLU, you must configure a valid NLU number greater than zero (0) for each record. In an improperly configured database, it is possible for two records to have the same NLU number. If this occurs, the workstation applies the lowest numbered record (by object number) to the check. When showing discounts, service charges, and tender/media records, the workstation takes the active menu level of the transaction into consideration.
