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

  1. Click Print button to send receipt to the printer.
  2. Confirm the receipt printed successfully when prompted.
  3. If printing fails, click Reprint to try again.

Email Receipt

If enabled in register settings:

  1. Click Email button.
  2. Customer email address is pre-filled from the sale or customer record.
  3. Receipt sends to customer's email.
  4. 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:

  1. Ask a manager to configure a printer.
  2. Until configured, receipts cannot print automatically.
  3. 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

  1. Clear or complete the current sale first.
  2. Select Reprint Sale from the Process Sales menu.
  3. Choose document type: - Receipt - Regular sales - Invoice - Shipped or on-account orders - Quote - Saved but incomplete sales - Gift Receipt - Gift purchases without prices
  4. Find the sale by: - Last Sale - Most recent transaction - Last 10 - Recent transactions - Transaction # - Specific receipt number - Date - By sale date - Clerk - By salesperson
  5. 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:

  1. Signature on Separate Receipt setting controls how signatures print.
  2. If enabled, a separate signature slip prints after the main receipt.
  3. 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:

  1. During card processing, customer signs on the terminal screen.
  2. Signature image is saved with the payment.
  3. Signature prints on the receipt per the signature settings above.
