Item

The Item Tab on the retailcloud ZeroPOS system is a crucial feature for managing inventory within your domain. This document provides an overview of the Item Tab and its functionalities, including displaying items, filtering, adding items, editing items, and more. It also outlines the mandatory fields required when adding or editing items. Let's dive into the details:

Overview

• The Item Tab is where you can view all the items in your inventory, displayed based on your customizations.
• Depending on your setup, the view may have multiple layers to navigate through.
• Recommended views include displaying all items (for a smaller inventory) or displaying items by department or other classifications (for larger inventories).

Display Options:

You can choose different display options within the Item Tab: 

• Displaying all items: This option is recommended for smaller inventories. 
• Grid mode: This mode allows you to display more items in a single line, useful when browsing through a larger inventory. 
• Displaying by department or other classifications: This view filters items based on the selected classification, which is recommended for businesses with extensive inventories.

Here are some things you need to know when you are selling items from the tablet application.

• First, you always have to have QOH on your items, if you don't you won't be able to sell them through the application.
• The application will let you know if you have any QOH on the items by having a checkmark on the picture that allows you to sell the item because you have some in your stock.
• If you have items with no QOH or negative QOH you will not be able to add them to the cart.

Some other Functions on the Item Tab are Filter, Add item, and Adding to the cart

• Search: You can search for items by name.
• Filter: This button allows you to filter items based on various attributes such as Vendor, Department, Category, Sub Category, Size, Color, and Brand.
