Striven HELP
Unit of Measure Prompting in POS
- Adam Sheean
- Thomas Richards
Striven allows users to setup automatic Unit of Measure selling in POS giving the ability to setup one stock item, but be able to quickly sell either the Unit, Pack or Box.
Striven can also print these labels so customers can clearly see the "Box" price which may entice them to purchase a "Box" instead of lots of "each" items.
An example of how it looks in POS is shown below:
An example of how the UOM Label prints is shown below:
