Notes ...

 

Selecting one of the Print Groups listed in the drop-down list ensures the POS Key will be configured to always alter the Print Group of the currently selected item in the sales grid to that Print Group. That is, the POS Key, configured this way, can only be used to alter the Print Group to the selected Print Group. Hence, it is therefore recommended to change the caption of the POS Key to reflect that. For example, if the Print Group Mains is selected, then change the caption of the POS Key to Serve as Mains.
