Description Martin Renvoize (ashimema) 2021-02-24 16:55:20 UTC 
The 'Items for purchase' table on the point of sale page can be sorted by code or description.

However, it would be beneficial to have 'popular' items appear at the top to prevent the requirement for searching for these items.

We have a few options:
* We could attempt to calculate this popularity dynamically.
* We could add a user-definable sort field in debit types.
* We could add a 'popular' flag to the debit types and then sort on 'popular + code/description'.

This is the simplest to achieve and should give a reasonable result.
