Start From the Order Detail Page

Review the customer, address, order status, payment state, fulfillment state, and totals before changing lines. Those details decide whether adding, editing, discounting, or removing a line is still safe.

Add a Product Line

  1. Open the order or create a new order.
  2. Go to the line items area.
  3. Search by product name, SKU, or part number.
  4. Confirm the quantity, price, tax handling, and fulfillment location when those fields are shown.
  5. Add the line and review the updated subtotal, tax, shipping, and order total.

How Pricing Is Chosen

Arcus applies the best available price based on the account, product, quantity, pricing level, and any product-specific policy. Manual changes should be intentional because they can affect margin and approval review.

  • Account pricing: customer-specific rules usually take priority when they match.
  • Pricing level: wholesale, retail, or other levels can provide the base price.
  • Quantity breaks: larger quantities may use a different sell rate.
  • Multiplier policies: pricing can be calculated from cost or another base value.
  • Manual override: use only when the salesperson or manager is intentionally changing the result.

Price changes can affect payment and approvals If a price changes after payment, invoice posting, or approval review, check the remaining customer balance and approval state before continuing.

​
Adjust Quantity, Discounts, and Notes

  • Quantity: affects availability, allocation, fulfillment work, and line total.
  • Unit price: changes revenue and margin.
  • Discount or adjustment: changes the customer total while preserving the product line.
  • Line note: can guide packing, shipping, or customer-facing documents depending on how the field is used.
  • Taxable behavior: depends on product tax settings, customer exemption, shipping address, sales channel, and tax connector setup.
Review the total after every line change After any line edit, re-check subtotal, tax, shipping, payment balance, and margin before moving the order forward.

​
Kits, Services, and Special Product Types

Different product types create different downstream work. A service line may not reserve physical stock. A kit sells as one line but expands to component picking and inventory consumption during fulfillment. A box or shipping product may affect packing and label work.

​
When a Line Cannot Be Removed

Arcus blocks line removal when deleting the line would break history. Use a correction, cancellation, return, refund, or invoice adjustment when the line already affected another workflow.

  • The line has been packed, shipped, fulfilled, or returned.
  • The line is tied to an invoice, payment, credit, or accounting entry.
  • The line has inventory movements, serial assignments, or kit component consumption.
  • The order is under approval or has a locked status.
Locked lines protect the audit trail A locked line does not mean the order cannot be fixed. It means the fix must happen through the workflow that preserves the payment, inventory, fulfillment, and accounting history.
