Special Groups

A retail item can be a part of Special Groups. They are used for extra grouping out of the static item hierarchy.

To set up Special Groups

1. Click LS Retail – Back Office, Setup, Item, Groups, Special Groups.
2. Press F3 to enter a new Special Product Group.
3. Fill in the Code and Description fields.

To assign items to Special Groups

1. Click LS Retail – Back Office, Retail Item Card. The Retail Item Card window appears.
2. Click Item, Special Groups.
3. In the field Special Group select the special group.

Repeat steps 3 to 5 for each special group you would like to assign to the item.

Special Groups can be used in LS Retail Standard for the Retail Item Search, definition of station printing and as a filter on the POS Command DYNMENU.

You can link a special group to an Item Hierarchy. This gives the option to see the special groups in the Sales History.

Optionally, you can decide in the LS Retail – Back Office, Setup, Retail Setup, the Sales History FastTab to ‘Include Special Groups’. In that case you do not need to link it to a Item Hierarchy but still can see them in the Sales History.

Special Groups can be assigned to Seasons and Events.
