-==Fixing Closed Days=== 
-There'​s a guide on this: 
-http://​cafecartel.com/​kb/​doku.php?​id=guides:​general:​closeunclosedday 
- 
-===== If I took weight out of inventory by reducing the number in the product count field in the item screen, would I be able to see that change anywhere? ===== 
- 
-This issue is raised when trying to track inventory changes. ​ For example: I can’t remember if I took something out of inventory or not and I am not sure how to check. 
- 
-In a situation like this, if there was a change made to a product count, you cannot track the change. ​ 
- 
-  * You should then disable the authorization to change the count - Office - Employees - Job Types. ​ 
-  * And you should use Transaction'​s to adjust the inventory count. You can add new transaction types: - Office - (Main Toolbar) System - Order Types. 
- 
-Then make an Order Type called, "​Inventory Adjustment"​ or anything that would indicate why you are using this transaction to adjust the inventory, such as waste etc. 
- 
-Use the Transaction they same way you would as a Purchase Order, and receive purchase orders. ​

- 
-=====  How can we donate gift cards and not have it look like we accepted cash for them? ===== 
-  
- 
-Q: 
-For example, I want to donate a $20 gift card for a charity auction. ​ I make the gift card, but I have to put some sort of payment in for the gift card in order for the money to be on the card.  If I hit exact change then the POS assumes that I took $20 in cash and that shows up on our report as a sale.  ​ 
- 
-Is there a way to activate the card with $20 on it without it showing up in our system as a cash payment? 
- 
-A: 
-From the POS menu screen: 
- 
-From the menu functions at the bottom of the screen, go to : Discounts. From the Discounts Screen, go to Item Discount -%100.00, this will appy a 100 percent discount to the item and chage the order $0.00 dollars. 
- 
-Or 
- 
-Use the Discounts - 'Zero Out Order' button - This set all prices of the order to $0.00. 
- 
-Press "Exact Change"​ or one of the dollar payment methods to close out the order.
