# Invoice / receipt (printout)

The A4 invoice for a sale in the Pos. Generated automatically when a sale is completed, or retrieved from a historical transaction via the printer icon.

## Invoice / receipt (printout)

This printout is the **invoice for a sale in the Pos** in full A4 format. It is exactly the same invoice printout used for regular sales, so the customer gets a consistent document regardless of whether the purchase was made in the Pos or otherwise.

### What the printout shows

The invoice contains everything a customer expects on a purchase document:

\- The company's name and logo at the top - Invoice address and any other payer - Item lines with price, discount and VAT information - Payment lines, totals and VAT specification - Payment terms and bank details - QR/MobilePay barcode for payment, where relevant - Any public note and subject as well as who created the sale

Since this is the standard invoice, it appears with the same layout as the company's other invoices.

### Parameters

The printout has **no user-selected parameters or filters**. The current sale is selected automatically, so you do not need to fill in anything before the printout is generated.

### Where it is started

You encounter the printout in two places in the **Pos**:

1\. **Automatically at sale.** When you complete a sale in the Pos, the invoice is generated automatically and can be printed right away. 2. **From a historical transaction.** Find the desired transaction in the Pos's sales history, and click the **printer icon** next to the sale to generate the invoice again.

In both cases the regular printout dialog opens, from which you can print or save the invoice as a PDF.

### Settings support can configure

The invoice printed from the POS also has a range of settings that control its appearance and behaviour but are not shown in the print dialog. They can be turned on/off or adjusted by support per company. If you want the receipt/invoice customized, contact support and refer to the relevant setting below. The technical name of each setting is shown in parentheses.
