The Quantity Ordered of an item is entered in whole numbers. Enter the quantity to order and press

<ENTER>.

NOTE: You may only have a fractional amount for Inventory Type marked as Non-Inventory or Service in "Inventory Entry" in INVENTORY (5.1.1 field 8).

Fractional amounts for Service Type Inventory items are entered in the "Quantity Shipped" field not the “Quantity Ordered” field. You have four digits past the decimal point available.

If the Quantity Discount Calculation field is set to <S>hipped and the Quantity Shipped Flag is set to Quantity on <H>and in "POS Defaults & Comments" in SYSTEM MANAGEMENT (10.2.6.2 field 10 page 1), the Quantity Special Pricing will be calculated off of the Quantity Shipped.

If the Quantity Discount Calculation field is set to <O>rder, the Quantity Special Pricing will be Calculated off of the Quantity Ordered.

This feature is used to give the Customer the Quantity Discount price if they order the correct amount, even if you must Back Order a portion or all of the order. This may be treated as a "Rain Check" for the Customer.

NOTE: Any Back Orders created will also carry the discounted price, which will be maintained when Back Orders are filled.

A Minimum Sale Quantity of a Part Number may be setup in “Inventory Entry” in INVENTORY (5.1.1 field 30). The Quantity Ordered will automatically round up to the next multiple of the Minimum Sale Quantity. The following prompt will be displayed: “Quantity Ordered for this part number will be rounded up to xx based on the Minimum Sales Quantity setup for this part in Inventory Entry.” 

NOTE: If the Quantity Shipped has been set and then the Quantity Ordered is modified, the Quantity Shipped will NOT be recalculated. This allows you to back order or manually modify the Quantity Shipped.

If there is a list of items already entered, you may go to a specific line item. Type <G> and the line number (ex. G10) and press <ENTER>.

To Delete a line, press <DEL> or <CTRL><C> at the same time to clear the field you are on, and press

<ENTER>.

To Insert a line, press <INS> or <CTRL><ENTER> at the same time. A line will be added above the line where you were located.
