CHECKOUT PROCEDURES

DEACTIVATION OF PRESSURE SENSITIVE TAGS AND HANG TAGS

Pressure sensitive tags and hang tags may be deactivated at the point at the sale by using a Counterpoint Pad or

integrated scanner. Please refer to the directions below to determine the optimum procedure for deactivating

Checkpoint tags.

COUNTERPOINT DEACTIVATION

1. While ringing up purchases, cashiers

should pass each product across the

full width of the Counterpoint Pad. Items

should be held low and horizontally to

make sure that the target is within the

deactivation field.

2. As a final check, place purchased

merchandise on top of the deactivation

pad.

SCANNER DEACTIVATION

1. Tagged areas/bar codes should be held

as low as possible above the scanner

(without disrupting throughput) to

ensure tag deactivation. Every

item

must be scanned; cashiers should avoid

using the ”quantity” key on the cash

2. At the point of sale, items should be

scanned for bar code information as

usual. Checkpoint tags placed on

merchandise are deactivated at the

same time.
