<p class="Help-Text" style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0; background-color: #ffffd2;"><span style="color: #ff0000; font-weight: bold;">Important Note:</span> New information fields, list columns, and report options may be added in support of new and enhanced features in Point of Sale upgrades and updates. In most cases, these new fields and options are automatically available to you. However, if you have customized your Point of Sale lists, &#160;reports, or printed documents and tags, the new installation does not overwrite your customized layouts to add the new fields. If you plan to use a new feature, and the fields or options are not visible to you, you may need to further customize your layouts to add them or, in the case of reports, use the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Revert</span> option to reset to the default options and then re-memorize.</p>
