A barcode isn't found at the till: the three choices

A scan the till doesn't know makes two low beeps and opens a window with the code and big buttons. The sale stays as it is while you choose.

Steps

1. Read the title: "This code isn't in your products". The code is shown under it, so check it against the package.
2. If the item is new to your shop, press "Add as a new product", type the name and the price, then save. On a phone camera the form opens by itself with the code filled in and the cursor on the name; "Save and add to the sale" puts it in the sale and the camera comes back.
3. If you already have the item under another barcode (a new package, a second supplier), press "Add this code to a product I have", then pick the product. The next scan finds it.
4. If you only want to sell now and name it later, press "Sell for a price I type", enter the amount, and continue. Anyone can do this, the cashier included.
5. To skip the window without saving anything, press "Not now"; the sale is untouched.
6. Cashier: ask the owner to save the code. The window says that only the shop owner saves a barcode.

If it doesn't work

• "Barcode not saved: this barcode belongs to another product": open that product in Inventory and check it.
• "Barcode not saved: the product no longer exists": the product was removed; pick another or add a new one.
• Any other failure: link the barcode again from the product's own screen (adding a product).

What the system does not do

It does not invent barcodes for products. When the code is a public one it may suggest the name; the price you always set yourself.
