Fill in the text you would like to have displayed and choose the Type of display it will be. Your 3 Options are as listed.

Item: This is helpful if you would like to emulate a sub-item to a Product that you do not charge for nor track inventory for. To be able to use the item info text feature you will need to add the button and POS function Item Info Selection. For more information on creating button functions please refer to our Create POS Buttons/Button configuration manual Page.

Popup: This will be a Pop-up text box that will appear on the POS as soon as the related items are selected for sale.
