Receipts & Reprints¶
After a sale completes, the register displays the receipt screen where you can print or email the receipt.
Navigation:
After sale completion → Receipt screen, or Process Sales → Reprint Sale
Receipt vs. Invoice¶
The register automatically decides which document to print:
- Receipt: Regular sales and carry-out transactions
- Invoice: Sales with shipping information or on-account payments
Printing or Emailing a Receipt¶
Print Receipt¶
- Click Print button to send receipt to the printer.
- Confirm the receipt printed successfully when prompted.
- If printing fails, click Reprint to try again.
Email Receipt¶
If enabled in register settings:
- Click Email button.
- Customer email address is pre-filled from the sale or customer record.
- Receipt sends to customer's email.
- Confirm when complete.
Note
Email receipts must be enabled in register settings by a manager. If you do not see the Email button, email receipts are not enabled for this register.
No Printer Configured¶
If the message "No receipt printer is configured for this register" appears:
- Ask a manager to configure a printer.
- Until configured, receipts cannot print automatically.
- Email can still be used if enabled.
Receipt Configuration¶
Receipt printing is controlled by the Payment Type settings:
Receipt Settings¶
- Print Receipt(s): Checkbox (enabled by default)
- Receipt Copies: Number of copies to print (default: 1)
- Receipt Signature: None, Last Copy, or All Copies
Invoice Settings¶
- Print Invoice(s): Checkbox (disabled by default)
- Invoice Signature: None, Last Copy, or All Copies
Tip
To print only 1 copy instead of multiple, check that the Payment Type receipt copies setting, Register printer preferences copies setting, and Register class printing settings are all set to 1.
Reprinting Earlier Documents¶
Reprint a Sale¶
- Clear or complete the current sale first.
- Select Reprint Sale from the Process Sales menu.
- Choose document type: - Receipt - Regular sales - Invoice - Shipped or on-account orders - Quote - Saved but incomplete sales - Gift Receipt - Gift purchases without prices
- Find the sale by: - Last Sale - Most recent transaction - Last 10 - Recent transactions - Transaction # - Specific receipt number - Date - By sale date - Clerk - By salesperson
- Confirm the reprint.
Important
Reprinting requires manager permission. If you cannot reprint, ask a manager to grant permission.
Signature Receipts¶
Signature Receipt Settings¶
If a customer needs to sign, the system can print a signature receipt:
- Signature on Separate Receipt setting controls how signatures print.
- If enabled, a separate signature slip prints after the main receipt.
- If you see "Signature receipt failed" message:
- Make sure printer is a real thermal printer (not virtual/PDF)
- Turn off "Signature on Separate Receipt" if not needed
- Ask a manager for help
Credit Card Terminal Signature¶
Some credit card processors capture signatures from the payment terminal:

Verify receipts print successfully before the customer leaves. Email receipts need a valid customer email address. Reprinting requires manager permission. Check printer power and paper if printing fails. Keep receipts organized for returns and customer service.
