You can use .INI settings to customize F1-F12 keys for use as main action keys or for Sales screen action macro invocation. Sales screen action macros are documented in the Salesware Sales Screen Action Macro Commands document. The customized settings override the default uses of the F keys (see Pre-programmed function and Alt keys for the default settings).

 

Example:

Using an F key for main actions:

F3=SCH

This setting overrides the default setting and brings up the booking schedule window.

Using an F key for Sales screen action macros:

F9=SELECTLAST()ACCOUNT()

This brings up the account window instead of the default coupon button action.

F10=SELECTLAST()MODIFYITEM("TICKETS ADULT 1DAY ")

This adds the specified modifier to a line item on the sale list.

F11=SELECTLAST()SPECIAL("BUY1GET1 ")

This applies the Buy1get1 special to a line item on the sale list.

Swipe settings can be simplified by using the new SWIPE() macro in the .INI settings.

 

Using the format: FXX=SWIPE(prompt, track, text, strip [optional]), this set of four lines:

F10Track=1
F10Strip=2
F10Text=%EP
F10Prompt="Please Swipe Employee Card"

can be combined in one line:
