Enabling this option will allow users to edit the item description while invoicing.

 

•If this option is left disabled the description of the item will be extracted from the current value of Inventory Maintenance or, if available, from the ship to customer's special price file. A description from the special price file is considered to be a special description, which is defined on a per customer basis as part of the special price/standard order file.

•Most distributors will find it satisfactory to leave the option disabled, which will also make the order entry process go faster because at least one keystroke is required.

•While in the invoicing window, if this option is enabled, you may type in a new value for the first line of description directly in the item grid.

•If you need to edit description lines 2-4 click the Edit Line Item button outlined in red in the image below located to the right of the description column. This will open the Edit Line Item dialog.

 

 

Item descriptions cannot be edited when working with sales orders or quotations.
