Documentation Conventions

The following explains the conventions used throughout the Oracle Retail Xstore Point of Service Classic User Guide to denote task-related information, highlight information for special emphasis, or to bring your attention to an important point.

Text Conventions

Due to the flexibility of the system, menu options in this guide are not identified by a function key number (for example, [F2] or [F3]). Instead, the name on the button is used throughout the procedures and processes.
