On the main menu click and you will get this
To create a new EPOS job, select which store group's EPOS data it will contain , Asda is the default.
Then click .
EPOS Jobs always begin with EP
The next 3 letters, in the example above ULV, is a three letter code for the company your log on belongs to.
006 means Asda, 011 means Sainsburys & 013 means Tesco

You can leave the description blank, or edit it later, but for it to be saved remember to click . As soon as a change to a description has been saved the change will appear in the list of EPOS jobs below.
 
Once you have added a new EPOS Job, or selected an existing one by clicking on it in the list of EPOS Jobs, it details will appear here, and it is the current EPOS Job.
Now you have a current EPOS job you can view / edit the batches of EPOS data which belong to it.
Though first it would be useful to know what a batch is.
When you import a file of data a batch for each unique brand, week in it is also created. Each file can only contain data from one store group, and with one owner, which again will be the company your log on belongs to.
This means that a batch only contains data for a particular Brand, Store Group, Week, Data Owner combination, EG all EPOS data in Batch 587 is about Brand X, in Asda, for week commencing 2nd April 2007, and belongs to company YEL.
A batch can belong to as many EPOS jobs as you want.
This means that for batch 587 again, in your in-house analysis, you want all data between 2 dates which you own bundled together. So you could include batches 500 to 600 inculsive. However you might want information about a single brand (Brand X) in a single store group (Asda) for a different, overlapping time period (including 2nd April 2007) that would be available to a third party
Only select the batches which contain the limited data to EPOS job A, and add all of them to EPOS Job B.
 
Click and you will get this
The upper section displays the details of the current EPOS Job, but they cannot be changed here.
To move a single batch from one list to the other click on the single arrow in the relevant direction.
To move a all batches from one list to the other click on the double arrow in the relevant direction.
 
As you can see in this example, the list of available batches can get long, so you can filter the list of available batches by brand, using the controls below the available batches list.
To apply a filter, select the brand from the list and then click .
To remove a filter, click and then click .
