Quick answer: Put the empty container on your scales. Press the >T< button on your scales to set the tare. The new weight shown will be 0. Then follow the steps below.
If you sell products by weight, you may wish to enter a container weight or tare. When a container weight or tare is registered, it gets deducted from the total weight.
This means that if, for example, you sell yoghurt by weight, you can now enter the yoghurt cup's weight so the customer does not get charged for the weight of the yoghurt cup.
There are two ways to do this:
Set tare on scales
Set container weight on POS
