NOTE: Selecting type G rental changes the pricing columns from the normal price methods used in
A,B,C,D,E,F and H. You must also program Symphony POS lanes using the POS setup for rental
items. For more on rental item programming, and how to use the "POS Setup", please see the
"Working with PLUs" section, "Rental Items"
help page below.
Type G should be used for rental items that are rented for different periods of time. An example of
type G rental item is a VCR or Nintendo machine that may be rented for a day, a weekend or a week at
a time. Type H is used for all items that share the same rental period. This would often be the case for
most films in a C-store because they are rented for a fixed 24 hour period and no other choice is
available.
This example shows the Item table's "Price" tab with "G" type rental is selected.
Choosing method type G for an item will modify the fields available in the price column. No sale
column is available with type G. Price levels are available. When you select a type G, the pricing
column changes to an editable table. You must add records (lines) to this table to program the prices
for the available time periods.
·The first field is the length of the rental period in hours.
·The next field is a description of the rental period.
·The final field is the price for that period of rental.
Add as many rental periods as required for the item being added. If you select Default , the Symphony
POS will use that as the rental period even though multiple periods have been selected. If you do not
select a default period, Symphony POS will open a choice window for the operator to select the proper
period whenever the item is rented. If you select a default rental period, the Price Modify button can
be used to override the default status and pop up the list to permit POS operator selection.
Type H items use the price exactly the way normal items do.
NOTE: Other information on the rental system is available in the System set-up screen under the Rent
tab.
