Change Pawn Amount Manually - The Loan Amount is computed automatically based on the Total Item Value so manual changes to the Loan Amount would be discarded if another item is entered, so it is best to adjust the Loan Amount by adjusting Item Value.

Extend Current Pawn - If the pawner does not want to redeem a pawn, but only pay accrued interest & fees (so the pawn doesn't forfeit):

1. Select the pawn in the Pawn Work Area.
2. Click on Period Payment (lower left).
3. Collect the amount displayed.
4. Click Save or 'Save, Preview, Print' to complete the transaction.
5. Click Cancel to exit the screen without completing the transaction.

Reuse Previous Pawn - If a pawner redeems a pawn and brings it back later to pawn again, reactivate the pawn:

1. In PPSS click on File then Program Setup then the Pawn Opt tab.
2. Check 'Reuse previous pawn record on repawn'.
3. Click Save/Exit.
4. Select the pawn in the Pawn Work Area.
5. Click 'Extra Pawn Info' on the right.
6. Click on 'Reopen This Pawn'. The new pawn record is automatically created using information from the original pawn.

Add a New Pawn

Before entering a new pawn, first add the new pawner (F5), then press F4 to enter a new pawn. Select the pawner from the list and click OK to access the New-Pawn Screen:

The next available Pawner ID, Item #, Ticket #, the Current Date and Quantity (of 1) will be auto-entered. The default Due Date will be one month from the Current Date.

• Add a Description (up to 20 characters for price tags).
• Select a Category (if categories are being used).
• Enter Details (up to 100 characters for Detailed Reports).
• Enter the Item's Value. PPSS will compute the Total Loaned (pawn amount) based upon settings in Program Setup.
• Enter an Interest Rate for the period of the loan.

Note: The Interest Rate will not appear until at least one item is entered.

Add Multiple Items to the Same Ticket

More than one item can be added to the same pawn ticket. After entering the first item, click on Another Item (or press F4) to save that the first item. Enter the second item and repeat for each item. When all items have been entered, click OK to save the pawn record.

As items are added to the same pawn record, PPSS will compute and display the total amount to loan based entries made in Program Setup.
