Big Business 2.5 improves your ability to sell Items into negative Quantities on Hand. Item Preference settings, also found in the Customer Prefs, enable warnings or prevent the save of transactions which overdraw your inventory. If your operation requires the ability to sell inventory not yet received on a Bill, though, Big Business 2.5 provides new features to minimize problems.

• New Prompts help keep your Cost for an Item current, even on Built Items.

• Selling Items into negative quantities on hand use appropriate costs.

• If replenishing the Item yields a cost difference a correction is made automatically.

• This correction no longer locks the purchase transaction

• The correction is available for editing as an Item Adjustment.
