How To Program A Sharp Xe-a106 Cash Register

A well-programmed, reliable cash register is essential to conducting successful transactions. Although your company's Sharp electronic cash register comes with a degree of pre-programming, certain information including the date, time and local tax rate must be programmed manually before you can begin making sales. Because your Sharp register prints a record of each programming change you make, verify that there is sufficient paper in the register's roll before proceeding.

Insert the manager key into the Mode switch on the cash register and turn the switch to the Z/PGM position to enter programming mode.

Enter the current date in the following format: MMDDYY. If the date is January 1, 2013, for example, you will enter 010113.

Press the "#/SBTL" key once to save your new date settings and continue programming. Press the "#/SBTL" key a second time to exit programming mode.

Insert the manager key into the Mode switch and turn the switch to the Z/PGM position to enter programming mode.

Enter the the time using the 24-hour clock format. If the time is 6:45 PM, for example, you will enter 1845. If the time is 2:33 AM, enter 0233.

Press the "#/SBTL" key once to save your new date settings and continue programming. Press the "#/SBTL" key a second time to exit programming mode.

Insert the manager key into the Mode switch and turn the switch to the Z/PGM position to enter programming mode.

Press the "9" key.

Press the number representing the rate you are changing. If you only have one tax rate to set up on your register, press "1." If you want to add another tax rate in the future, you will press "2" to create a second tax rate.

"Press the "@/TM" key.

Enter the tax rate. Tax rates are entered in a six-digit format. To put your tax rate in the proper format, take the rate as a decimal and multiply it by 10,000. If the rate is 7 percent, for example, you would enter 70000.

"Press the "@/TM" key.

Enter the minimum taxable amount on which taxes should be charged. To put the amount in the proper format for the Sharp register, multiply it by 100. If nothing below 10 cents gets taxed, for example, then you would enter "11." If nothing below one dollar gets taxed, you would enter "101."
