A multi-bar outlet will typically be managed using a cellar ledger system - either a manual version or computerised. The ledger will contain details of every transfer of stock between the cellar and all of the bars. Instead of entering details using the Transfers option, you can use the Cellar Balance option to input the data directly from the cellar ledger.
If you have already collected deliveries totals and closing stock figures, these can also be entered onto the cellar balance screen. If so, you will be able to get an on-the-fly balance check.
Before the cellar balance screen is displayed, you will be warned that you should not mix the use of the cellar balance screen with the transfers, credits and purchases screens. This is because data entered on those screens may be lost if you start to type into the columns on the cellar balance screen.
After the last bar, you will be able to continue with the Purchases for the next product.
If the balance message is ticked, you may receive a warning message if the cellar does not balance for the product you just completed.
To Find a Product press Control-F8 (the control key and the function key F8).
You will be prompted to type in the characters or numbers you wish to find. Type them in and press Enter. If the product found is not the one you want, you can find the next occurrence of the characters by pressing Control-F9. You will not be prompted for the characters and the next product found will be highlighted.
