Change Department ID

This procedure requires exclusive use of the data files. This means that all other users on your network must exit the point of sale system before you begin. To see which computers are currently in the point of sale, go to Help User List from the main menu where you will see the list of computers currently logged in. The only computer that should be logged in should be the one you are at.

Select System Utilities Maintenance Department ID from the Main Menu. A grid view of your departments will appear. Select the departmentID you wish to change from the grid.

Type in the new ID. Select Ok to proceed or Cancel to abort and return to the menu.

If the "new ID" you enter already exists in your file, a message will appear telling you that the ID exits. Simply repeat this procedure using an ID that does not already exist.
