This feature allows an operator to vary the price at the point of sale. The item is sold in the normal way. Then enter the at symbol, @, (or alternativle, the character =, which avoids the use of the shift key,) followed by the price in pence. The selling price is adjusted for the current or selected line only. The price of the product in the product table is not changed. Any items sold subsequently will be at the original price, even during the current sale. If an offer is in use on the product, then it will not apply to a priced over item. If only one item of several is to be reduced, then it needs to be on a separate line, so deal with it first..
There is interaction between price over and discount. See this section for details.
This operation is restricted to those with the manager or owner authority. If the operator does not have authority, a dialog box is displayed and an owner/manager can scan their pass to allow the price over.
The maximum price that can be entered as a price over is £1200. The price may be increased as well as reduced. The need for this might arise if you were to use the program to keep track of auction sales in addition to shop sales.
