Stock items in various measurements can be added to a product so that whenever that level is sold, that stock shall be deducted from our stock levels. Using stock items can allow the product to have options, so long as those options don’t affect price.

Whether or not a product is printed in the kitchen or not is determined at product level, as it is the name of the product that will be printed there.

Products can be flagged as unavailble for sale, for use when they are out of stock. Setting this will stop sales of the item through all channels.

NOTE: Oscar will allow for a product to have no stock items attributed to it.

• Optionally input a Kitchen Description, which will override what is printed on the kitchen printer.
• Tick whether or not the product is priced at POS or if it’s available for sale.
• Select whether the product should print a check in the kitchen when sold. (Leaving it black will mean that it won’t.)
  
  NOTE: If you are trying to get an item that was previously set to print, not to anymore. Select the dropdown box, press del and then enter. That should return the box to blank.
  
  Add stock components if necessary
• When adding a new stock component, either use the drop down menu to find the stock item in the folder tree, or just start typing the stock item name in the box and it will find it for you.
• Use the “or” button to create an option of what stock item could be used. The options that the customer chooses will appear on the kitchen print out.
  Edit the display option to change what the item is called in POS and the in the kitchen printout.

NOTE: Throughout stock, products and retail ensure that you are creating new items or folders in logical places to keep the system tidy and everything easy for others to find. If a similar item exists in both retail and product, then it should be found in the same folder for each. (I.E English breakfast tea ought to be found in both the Hot Beverages -> Tea folders in both products and retail.) It’s generally a good idea for both products and retail to have a near identical folder layout.
