hmtoggle_plus1Advanced Planning - Do You Know Your Invoicing Screen Options?  

Choosing Quick Sale creates an invoice without any customer name.  

Choosing Customer Sale opens a list of customers from which you select (or first add) a customer.

This opens a blank sales screen.

2) Add products and services to the invoice.

Products are added using a barcode scanner, by manually typing a product SKU, or by opening a list of inventory and choosing the desired item.  Once the item is on the invoice, the quantity, selling price, and discount percentage can be changed.

Continue to add products to the invoice until all items to be purchased are listed.

Advanced Planning: Employee security settings control how much liberty an employee has in making changes to the items on the invoice.

4) Tender the invoice taking payment by cash, check, credit card.

Choose the Tender button, or press F10 on the keyboard.  You may be prompted for more information about the customer, but eventually you will determine how payment is to be made.  Highlight the payment type, press Enter, and fill in the amount if you are given more than the total charges.

Advanced Planning: Credit card processing needs to be activated before selection of credit card as a payment type.

5) Print the invoice for the customer.

After entering enough monies in payment, POSitive will print the invoice, display change to be given the customer and the invoice closed.   POSitive is then ready to repeat the process.

Advanced Planning: Printer(s), cash drawer, and pole display need to be connected and tested prior to invoicing.  This is done through Station Settings.

Invoice History

Once the invoice has been created and processed, a re-print copy of the invoice is accessible through Invoice History.  (see Invoice History)
