Article Summary

The additional order info screen allows wineries to add more information, such as Sales Associate, Sales Attribute, Inventory Pool, a Future Ship Date for shipped orders, and more. These are all optional settings for an Order; the default settings will come from the POS Profile you are using.

Selected information will only appear on the single Order that is being placed. This allows you to override the default settings for a single POS order.


Where To Add Additional Order Info

The Additional Order Info screen can be accessed and adjusted from 2-3 locations (Main Menu, Payment Screen, Forced Popup) when placing a POS order, depending on your POS Profile setup.

POS Main Menu

In addition to the standard settings, the Main Menu Additional Order Info screen allows you to adjust the Inventory Pool that the products will use and add a Future Ship Date to shipped orders.

1. Open the settings menu by clicking the menu button, which looks like 3 bars, in the top left corner of the POS screen.

2. Select Additional Order Info.

3. Adjust the information and click Apply to save your selections.


Payment Screen

In addition to the standard settings, the Payment section Additional Order Info screen allows you to adjust the Inventory Pool that the products will be using and add a Future Ship Date to orders being shipped.

1. Add items to your POS cart session and click Charge.

2. Select Additional Order Info from the list of Payment Options.

3. Adjust the information and click Apply to save your selections.


Forced Popup

Allows you to adjust settings on POS after it has been created and paid for. Not all locations are available from the Forced Additional Order Info popup. Some scenes, like inventory pool & requested(future) ship date, cannot be added after placing the Order.

Enable the Forced Additional Order Info checkbox in your POS Profile from within the Admin Panel. 

1. Proceed through the checkout process for a POS order. 

2. After the view the Receipt screen, the Additional Order Info popup will appear. 

Unlike the Main Menu and Payment Screen Additional Order Info sections, the forced popup appears after the Order is placed and sent to integrated compliance or fulfillment providers. Because of this, Inventory Pool and Requested (future) Ship Date is not available settings from the forced popup window, as these settings cannot be modified after the Order has been placed.


What Information Can I Add? 

There are several different items and settings that you can adjust on the POS order you are placing. A list of field definitions and which Additional Order Info screens you can adjust them on. 

Table of Definitions

Sales Associate

Flag a specific order with the sales associate who placed the demand for the customer. 

Sales Associates must be created before they will appear on this menu. For more information, see the Sales Associates Documentation.

This can be adjusted from any Additional Order Info screen.

Requested Ship Date

The Requested Ship Date field will only appear in the Main Menu or Payment Screen Additional Order Info sections for shipped POS orders. 

This allows you to add a future ship date to integrated compliance services (ShipCompliant) and fulfillment providers.

Sales Attribute

A custom reporting flag will be visible when running sales reports. 

Sales attributes must be created before they will appear in this menu. For more information, see the Sales Attributes Documentation.

This can be adjusted from any Additional Order Info screen.

Inventory Pool

The Requested Ship Date field will only appear in the Main Menu or Payment Screen Additional Order Info sections, which can only be adjusted before placing the Order. 

This allows you to select which inventory pool you want the items pulled from. Only one collection per Order can be chosen. 

Order Type

The Order Type select allows you to manually set the order type when placing an order—for example, POS, Admin Panel, Club Order, etc.

This can be adjusted from any Additional Order Info screen.

Source Code

It is a free-form field that is visible in sales reports. Use this to add custom keywords to review in words later. This works similarly to Sales Attributes but does not save a source code for repeated use—50 character limit.

This can be adjusted from any Additional Order Info screen.

Order Notes

Allows you to add special shipping instruction notes for the Order, such as "Leave at the front porch."
