Registering a sale

When registering a sale, you have several options with regards to product quantity, unit price, discounts etc (depending on your access rights). When you have entered the product/-s in the main sales registration window, click the product line you want to edit in order to open a product window.

Quantity

To enter more than one of the same product you can either enter the number before you add the product or click on the sales line and change the quantity afterwards. If you are using shortcut keys, you can click on the quantity first or click on the shortcut key several times to change the quantity.

Unit Price and Discount

You can click/press on a sales line in the registration window to open a more detailed window. From this window you can change the quantity and, if your access allows this, also change the price or enter a discount.

The system administrator decides who has access to this function via Administration - Users and Security.

Free Text

By clicking a sales line you can also enter a descriptive text about the product in the Free Text field. The information you enter is displayed on the receipt beneath the product line. The text is synchronised with your Mamut Business Software system, where it can be found by opening the sales and invoicing register and clicking the Order line text button in the Product Lines tab. If you have selected to merge the product lines containing the same product, price and discount, the text will not be displayed in Mamut Business Software.

Please note that you can retrieve more information about a product from this window by clicking on the three-dotted button. Read more about this here.
