It is easiest to prioritize by groups. For example, Drinks could be from 1-1000, giving an ample range to add more drink menu items as the menu grows. 1000=top of receipt. 5000=middle, 9000=bottom.

If the bar terminals were configured to Centralized Check Closing, the bartenders would be forced to use Cashier mode, but with Cross Tracking, the bartenders can use Quick Bar mode which is much faster for order taking at the bar. The Cross Tracking feature adds a new section to the bartender and server audit reports, showing not only the sale that were entered by the bartender, but also the sales entered by the server and close by the bartender.

This option is used in quick service mode to disable the second cash drawer in restaurants that are only using one cash drawer per terminal (Micro$ale has the ability to use two cash drawers on each terminal allowing two users to track and store cash separately). This option can also be used in a full service application where two or more users share a cash drawer but track sales separately for tip tracking purposes.

Micro$ale will only read and reset the sales from CLOSED audits during the Nightly Closeout when in 24-Hour mode, so the closeout report will only show sales from these closed audits. IMPORTANT NOTE: Micro$ale usually performs maintenance on the financial databases during the Weekly Closeout. This maintenance cannot be performed while the databases are being used, so this regular maintenance does not occur when in 24-Hour mode. Customers running in 24-Hour mode are encouraged to select a time at least once per month when they can close all of their checks and audits and run a Daily Closeout and a Weekly Closeout. Then compact the databases on every terminal before starting new audits. This maintenance is important because it helps prevent database corruption and keeps the system from slowing down due to database issues.
