Description
The label describing this device assignment. This value can be either a Common or an Individual assignment code.
Default Code
Determines if this DeductIT code is the default for this device (Yes/No).
Each device is assigned a default deduction code. An optional prompt may be set up for the user to input the deduction code at the time of the transaction. This is useful for recording multiple types of deductions at one location, such as taxable vs. non-taxable pharmacy, or auxiliary sales.
-
If the device is not set up with the deduction code prompt, all transactions are recorded with the default code assigned to the device.
-
When the device is set up with the deduction code prompt, the deduction transaction posts with the entered deduction code. In the event an invalid or no deduction code is entered, the transaction defaults to the default code assigned to the device.
Note
Only one code may be assigned the default code. If another code is already set up as the default and a user selects "Yes", the new code becomes the default code.
