Manual Ad-Hoc Ordering in Ramsys

Ramsys also supports manual ad-hoc ordering, giving users the flexibility to place orders outside of the automated processes. This feature is important because it allows for quick, on-the-fly ordering when unexpected stock needs arise or when special circumstances require immediate attention. With manual ad-hoc ordering, you can manually select items and quantities, ensuring you can respond to urgent situations, such as last-minute customer demands or unplanned stock shortages, without being constrained by standard ordering schedules.
