Adjust Cart Items Instantly
The Line Item Edit function allows cashiers to modify quantities, prices, or descriptions of items currently in the shopping cart before checkout. This capability ensures that the final transaction recorded in the accounting ledger matches exactly what the customer agreed to pay at the register. By enabling real-time adjustments, the system prevents discrepancies between the physical receipt and the financial records, reducing reconciliation errors and preventing chargebacks due to pricing mismatches.
Cashiers can update unit prices directly if a discount was applied verbally or if a price correction is needed for a specific SKU.
The function supports quantity changes, allowing staff to add or remove items from the cart without voiding the entire transaction.
All modifications are logged immediately with a timestamp and user ID, creating an immutable audit trail for financial compliance.
