Point of Sale Receipt Printing
with Private Funds Manager
If you need to issue printed receipts for money received in Private Funds Manager, there are two operational choices:
-
Take money directly from students and give them a receipt there and then. We call this the POS (Point of Sale) option.
-
Take money directly or indirectly (eg envelopes posted in a postbox or handed in; money collected elsewhere then passed to you etc) but print a receipt later on, perhaps to be returned to pupils in their register or similar.
In both cases, the receipt you print can be either:
-
Printed on a ‘normal’ printer, on an A4 sheet of paper. You can choose from 1 receipt per page or multiple receipts per page – 3,6 or 9 which then need to be separated. You can either cut the paper manually, or purchase pre-perforated paper from your stationary supplier.
-
Printed on a special receipts printer (as shown above) on till-roll style receipt paper, issuing a receipt similar to one you would receive in any retail outlet. We call these POS receipts.
To print at the point of sale, instantly as you enter the receipt details, go to Transaction Entry – Receipts . In the bottom left hand side of the screen make sure the Auto Receipt box is ticked, and then choose either POS receipts to print on a receipts printer, or choose from Individual,3,6 or 9 to print on your regular printer.
To print receipts later, go to Transaction Entry – Receipts – and make sure that the Auto Receipt box is not ticked. To print your receipts go to Screen Enquiries – Copy Receipts. Select item to print a receipt for using the tick boxes on the left hand side, then choose your receipt type, and finally click on Print
