Many of the fields and buttons on both the Order Entry window and Point of Sale window can be accessed with keyboard commands. If you press the ALT key in Order Entry or Point of Sale, you will see that the keyboard commands are indicated by an underlined letter on the screen. To use the keyboard commands, hold down the ALT key, and press the letter key that corresponds with the field to which you want to go. (For Funeral Log, Facility Search, and Map It, the keyboard commands are not on the button but can be seen if you hover the mouse over the button. The shortcut for Funeral Log is ALT+L. The shortcut for Facility Search is ALT+A. The shortcut for Map It is ALT+I.)

You can also use the TAB key to move through the fields, and you can use the arrow keys to navigate in the product grid.

Title Bar

The title bar in the Order Entry and Point of Sale windows displays the Sale ID for the last order completed, filed, updated, or marked as C.O.D. Orders that were accessed but not changed do not display in the Order Entry or Point of Sale title bar. The title bar also shows the date and time the order was entered.

Hot Keys

Hot keys allow you to jump to a particular area of the screen, using a certain function key.
