Choose Data to Import into new Shift

2. Choose Data to Import into new Shift 
If data will be entered manually and/or a blank/empty shift is desired, please go to Step 3.
If there is no data in the POS section and there should be,  My Pricebook can check for data by clicking the Check for New Sales to Import button. The system will go check to see if any data has come in.  It is a good idea to use this button if the My Pricebook program has been running for a few days.  My Pricebook checks for new data when it is launched.
 
Select the POS(Register) data by clicking in the box next to the date of the data to be imported into the new shift.
