The simplified invoice is a compact version of the sales invoice, intended for receipt slip printing rather than a full A4 invoice. The printout renders one transaction in a narrow receipt format with item lines, quantities, prices, totals and VAT as well as any header and footer lines from the store's setup.
Use it when the customer should have a regular receipt for their purchase instead of a full invoice.
The printout has no user-selected parameters. The current sale is selected automatically, and all formatting (font, header/footer texts, VAT texts, line length etc.) is controlled by the store's print and POS setup. You therefore do not need to fill in anything before printing.
The layout is fixed to receipt width, so the printout fits a receipt printer.
The printout is generated from the Pos:
1. Complete the sale in the Pos as usual — the simplified receipt slip is generated automatically as a receipt if the store is set up for it. 2. To reprint a previous transaction, open it from the transaction overview and select the printer icon. 3. Confirm the printout in the printout dialog.
The receipt slip is then sent to the connected printer.
The simple 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.
