Entering a Special Order Item
A special order item is any item you do not want to create a stock item record for. This option is available only if it is allowed on your Salesperson Code. These instructions assume you are already in the Sales Order Entry or Sales POS Register window.
To include a special order item in a sales transaction:
1 Type or scan the number or other identifier you will use as the stock number for the special item. When you scan or type a stock number the system doesn’t recognize, the No Information Detected in System window appears when you tab out of the item field:

2 Click Create a Special Order Item and enter the necessary quantity and price information.
3 Complete and tender the transaction.
Special order items do not have inventory stock item records associated with them, so they don’t offer some of the features that “regular” stock items do, such as the ability to back order. If you need to use these features with this item, we recommend you create a stock item instead of using the special order feature.
