In the current version 2.0 when in the POS Sales Screen, after scanning or using F2 to lookup an item and clicking enter, the focus changes to the next blank line for the next item entry.
It would be more advantageous from some customers point of view if the focus instead of moving to the next free line jumped to the quantity field instead. That way for those customers that have special entry needs they wouldn't have to move back a line to enter this information manually. If there was no change, ie. the quantity is one then all the user would have to do is hit the 'Enter' key.
I have several clients that don't like the current method of entering 2* or
3* or whatever before scanning or looking up an item as 1) the information disappears from the lookup field box once the * sign is pressed and 2) if they chose the wrong amount by mistake they would still have to move the focus back to the quantity line of that item to make the change. By having the software automatically jump the focus to the quantity line or making it an option it makes use of the software easier for the end user.
