The Quick Pick Panel allows you to quickly add common items that are sold at your store at a transaction. From the front register, you can scroll through different panels and add items to the transaction with one touch. Panels can be set up for products and services, and can contain buttons for simple, matrix, non-inventory and prompt for price items.
