Setting Up Store-Specific Purchasing Options

Use the following procedure to set up the store-specific options that govern how the Purchasing application works. These options are referred to as "store-specific" because if you have a multistore system, these options can vary from store to store. If you have a single store system, then these options are virtually the same as "system-wide" options, in that they are the same for all terminals and users.

  2. Click the arrow to the right of the Subsystem box and select Purchasing from the drop-down list.
