When you order items using the To Do List, orders record automatically, with no chance for review

If you order items using the To Do List window, keep in mind that the orders will be recorded automatically; you won't get a chance to review or change any of the transactions before they're recorded.

If you're not sure you want to record a particular transaction, you should use the Purchases Register window to manually enter the transaction so you have better control over the transaction than you would if you used the To Do List.
