Edit an Attached Item
In some situations it will be necessary to edit the details of an item that has been selected for an event to make it fit the client's specific requirements. Changes can be made to the item price, the item quantity, and other details. The Edit Item screen will also allow the actualization of the item on the resource level once the event becomes actual.
Editing an item that has been attached to an event is handled from the Edit Item screen. To reach this screen, choose Business Management>Events from the main menu. Use the Event Search screen to find the event for which you wish to edit an item. Highlight the Event in the results grid and select the Resources button to display the Event Resources screen. Finally, highlight the item on the Event Resources screen and select the Edit button to display the Edit Item screen. You may also select the Resources button on the Events screen to reach the Event Resources screen.

Once an Item Name is changed, the Item is considered a CUSTOM Item and the Custom Item check box will be selected. If the selected item is CUSTOM, the globe icon displays next to the Name field.
