Changing the price of an item at check-out

Q: How can I arbitrarily change the price of something added in the POS Sales Entry?  For instance after adding a bottle of Propane, we often need to adjust the amount.

A: You could add adjustment transactions after adding the item, for instance as a Discount, or you could use the Other Charge button to enter the price manually instead of selecting the item from inventory.  However if it's an item where you need to change the price frequently, you can also select the "Ask" option for that item in the POS Inventory Item Setup so it always asks for a price.  (This option was added in a recent version.)   Then, when adding the item in the POS Sales Entry, it will default to the price specified but the price can be changed when needed.
