Setting Up Item Types

You can edit theitems types available in AcuityLogic. You cannot create or delete an item type, and you should only modify an item type if instructed to do so by an Eyefinity representative.

To set up item types

  1. Open the Types/References window. See Opening the Types/References Window.
  2. Click the Item Type link.

    The Item Type window opens.

  3. Click the Edit link next to the item type you want to edit.

    The Item Type fields are made editable.

  4. To include the item type in the calculation of global discounts on orders, select the Allow Global Discount check box. If you have four item types on an order and allow global discounts on all four item types, then all four item types will be discounted. If you only allow global discounts on three of item types on the order, then one of the item types will be excluded from the discount.
  5. To allow the item type to be discounted on line items on orders, select the Allow Line Discount check box.
  6. Select Category 1 or Category 2 from the Sales Category drop-down list.
    • You can assign item types to one of two sales categories (Category 1 or Category 2) for reporting purposes. The sales totals of the items that you assign to these categories are combined, subtotaled, and displayed together on the Office Flash Sales report in the AcuityLogic POS and AcuityLogic BackOffice applications.
    • All item types are assigned to Category 1 by default, even if Category 1 is not displayed next to the item type in the Sales Category column.
  7. Select any extra features from the Extra Feature box.
    Press and hold the Ctrl or Shift key to select multiple features.
  8. Click Update to update the item type.
