Use the Next Topic and Previous Topic arrows, and , in the Navigation Pane of the Knowledge Base to read about each phase of creating a manual order in sequence. (The buttons are actually white on the black background of the Navigation Pane.)

The Manual Orders screen can be accessed by:
Main Menu > What would you like to do? > Create a New Order Button (unless the user has selected it to open the Point-of-Sale screen)
Main Menu Accordion > Create a New Order
Main Menu Accordion > Process My Orders > View and Process My Orders > Accordion Menu >Order > Add Order
The purpose of this screen is to manually enter orders that are received by mail, fax or phone.
If the merchant has a brick and mortar store with walk-in customers, the Point-of-Sale system offers a more sophisticated, cash register-like interface for entering and processing orders.
Select a link (top) or a button (bottom) in the right-hand pane to move through the various phases of placing a manual order, or click the links at the top of each screen (Customer, Items, Billing Shipping, Message/Notes , Custom, Payment or Summary).

The contents of this pane change as the user goes through the process of creating a manual order.
Click the links across the top of the screen to step through each section, or phase, of placing a manual order. (Using these links, it is possible to jump between different phases, out of their normal sequence.)
Another method of navigating between phases is to use the "Continue to.." or "Back to..." buttons at the bottom of each section, however, they only follow the normal sequence of steps.
