After you save a payment, you can print a receipt for the customer in one of four layouts. Every layout shows your logo, the amount in figures and in words, how the customer paid, and a line for the cashier to sign.
Before you start
- The receipt must be saved. The Print button does not appear on a new, unsaved receipt.
- To show your logo, upload it once under Setup → Organization, in the Primary Logo box. The receipts print without a logo if this box is empty.
Steps
- Open the receipt from Sales → Customer Receipts, or from the guest's folio.
- Click the small arrow next to Print and choose a layout:
- Logo header receipt: A5 page with "Received from… the sum of… being payment for…". The everyday choice.
- A5 portrait receipt: A5 page with the amount in a highlighted box.
- A4 receipt: full page that lists each invoice the payment settled.
- Revenue Receipt: A4 page with a serial number and signature lines for the cashier and the receiving officer.
- Check the preview, then print or download it.
- To print another copy while the receipt is still open, just click Print. It uses the layout you chose last.
Printing a receipt again
A receipt prints once freely. Printing it again needs the user right Can reprint old invoices (Setup → Users); the preview explains when it was first printed. Administrators can always reprint.
Tips
- Print A5 layouts on A5 paper, or tell your printer to "fit to page" on A4.
- A long customer name, address or description wraps onto extra lines. The receipt still fits on one page.
- A payment made in several ways, for example part cash and part transfer, lists each method with its amount.
Common problems
- There is no Print button → save the receipt first.
- The logo is missing → upload it in the Primary Logo box under Setup → Organization. The Wide Logo box is not used on receipts.
- I need the 80mm till slip → that slip belongs to the sale, not the receipt. Print it from the invoice or from the POS screen.
- The receipt says "Not applied to an invoice" → the payment was taken on account. Apply it to an invoice, then print again.
