Printing a bill

In a standard sales processing scenario, bills are printed automatically as soon as they are generated, i.e. when sending a guest tab for payment in <xi:include></xi:include> or <xi:include></xi:include> mode, or when submitting an order in <xi:include></xi:include> mode. If necessary, a bill can be re-printed in <xi:include></xi:include> mode.

Any open bill can be printed.

Note

The main terminal printer will be used by default, but any printer connected to the terminal may be used.

To print bills, a bill printing format must be configured for the printer.

Select the bill you want to print and press Print bill in the context menu.

A reason must be specified when re-printing a bill. Operations of this type are restricted and are logged in the <xi:include></xi:include> report in <xi:include></xi:include>.
