Browser - Register: Managing Items in a Tab

Overview

Once an item is on a tab, you can change how many you're selling, override its price, or apply a per-item discount — all without removing and re-adding it.

What it looks like

Each line item in the cart shows the item name, its unit price, an optional per-item discount dropdown, a price field, and a quantity control with − and + buttons plus a typed quantity box.

Steps

Change the quantity

1. Find the item on the open tab.
2. Click + to add one, or − to remove one.
3. The line's price updates automatically — quantity × the item's per-unit price.
4. NOTE: if some of this item's quantity was already sent to the kitchen, using − to lower the

quantity below what's already been sent requires manager override. A PIN prompt appears; without a valid manager PIN, the quantity does not change.

Override the price

1. Find the item's price field next to the quantity control.
2. Type a new price directly into the field.
3. NOTE: this field is only editable when your role has the **Can Discount Individual Items In

Register** permission — without it, the field is read-only and the discount dropdown described below does not appear either.

Apply a per-item discount

1. If your role has that permission, a discount dropdown (0–100%) appears next to

the item's price.

1. Choose a percentage — the item's price recalculates immediately.

Common Questions

Why can't I edit an item's price or apply a discount?

Your role doesn't have the Can Discount Individual Items In Register permission. The price field and discount dropdown only appear for roles that have it — ask a manager if you need it added.

Why did lowering the quantity ask for a manager PIN?

Part of that item's quantity was already sent to the kitchen. Lowering the quantity below what's already been sent requires a manager override PIN — this protects against silently un-billing food that's already being made.
