If you have something you need to sell/place on an invoice that is not a tangible item and cannot have a physical quantity in stock (or run out of stock), Orchid POS refers to this as a non-inventoried item.

Examples of non-inventoried items:

Fees (shipping, restocking, cancellation)

Gases (oxygen, helium)

Liquids (soda, coffee)

Permits (Forest Service, parking)

Tuition for private or not yet scheduled courses

 

You will create a product and mark it as non-inventoried. To do this, turn on the "Do not check for inventory in stock (non-inventoried item) option in the item's part details page.

  • Office > Inventory > Products > Manage Products; search for the item and click its part number to view part details
