We have a cycle of hundreds of different items coming in and hundreds of back orders being released on a continual basis so alerts won't work.

Auto/Edit Items is checked in File/Options so we can cycle through easily but each item has to be re-selected and then each quantity ordered has to be re-enetered to update the item. Tabbing through only retains the old information.

To avoid problems we have our staff re-enter every item this way when releasing back orders. It would be an annoying feature if you always wanted the order to retain the original pricing, but it would be a great feature if you could choose in the company profile whether you wanted to be warned or not. In our business pricing varies constantly with each receipt so we almost always want to bill the customer the updated price. It's not a big deal for us to re-enter every item - but it does have the potential to be forgotten.
