PLU STOCK
PLU stock is a simple inventory system where each whole unit PLU activity subtracts a value of "1" from
the stock counter. (Note that if multiplication or decimal multiplication is used when the PLU is
registered, the resulting quantity of activity will subtract from the stock counter. Stock is maintained
increments to the second decimal position, i.e. “X.XX”.)
Use the PLU Stock feature when you are selling items exactly as they are stocked. For example, if
cartons of milk are only sold individually, they could be inventoried with this system. Alternatively, if
prepared food, such as meats or salad is sold by weight, such as in a delicatessen, the actual weight
sold in each transaction is subtracted from the PLU stock level.
Current and Minimum PLU stock levels are entered for each PLU STOCK item. To assist in
reordering, the PLU minimum stock report lists each item with an inventory level below the
minimum stock level. When the level of a stock item falls below the minimum inventory level set
here, the item will appear on the PLU MINIMUM STOCK report. Optionally, a warning
“BELOW MINIMUM STOCK” can display when if the PLU is registered and stock is below the
minimum level. (See SYSTEM OPTIONS, GENERAL FUNCTION OPTION #57 to activate the
warning.)
When multiple registers are installed, stock count is checked by IRC at each stock item registration.
