About the Asterisk Next to Options Within the Point of Sale Tool

The asterisk means this option is only available in the Point of Sale system - it is not available to the public for purchase.

The way to control this setting is through the Public Status.
If your item, package, event, donation campaign, or ticket type has a Public Status of PRIVATE, it will be available for you to book through the Point of Sale Tool, but will not be available to the general public. If it has a Public Status of PUBLIC, it will be available for booking from the customer site.
