The Stock Item Description is used in all areas of Idealpos including the POS Screen, the customer’s receipt, Kitchen Printers, Kitchen Monitor, Stock and Sales Reports, Stock-take screen, and more.
A Stock Item can have up to three descriptions, and when adding a new item, the 2nd description will automatically populate based on the first description entered.
The 2nd description can be used for Kitchen Printers and monitors so the Kitchen can read a different description from the receipt description.
An example of this would be a Restaurant who has an item called ‘Char Grilled Eye Fillet’ however the kitchen docket reads ‘Eye Fillet’.
The 3rd description is a long description with a limit of 100 characters and can be utilised for eCommerce or storing additional information about the item.
