Selling an Item Not in the Inventory (Non-Entered Item)

If you need to sell an item that has not been created in inventory yet or that you don't want to create an item for, you can sell a non-entered item. To sell a non-entered item:

1.	Type a zero in the Find Items box on the Item tab of the Sales Screen.

2.	Type in the price of the item being sold and optionally a description, a department, and a quantity.

3.	When you are finished adding items to the Sales Screen, press the Go To Pmt button.

4.	Place the amount paid in the appropriate payment method(s) on the Payment Tab and press the Post Sale button. This will complete the sale, print out a receipt, and open the cash drawer (if you have one).

Note: If you assign a department to the non-entered item, the item's cost (for sales reports) will be determined by the department's Average Margin. If you do not assign a department to the non-entered item, the item's cost will be determined by the non-entered margin set in the Register Options. A non-entered item's sales tax will default to the values set on the Register Options for a particular location.
