I make the gift card, but I have to put some sort of payment in for the gift card in order for the money to be on the card. If I hit exact change then the POS assumes that I took $20 in cash and that shows up on our report as a sale. Is there a way to activate the card with $20 on it without it showing up in our system as a cash payment? A: From the POS menu screen: From the menu functions at the bottom of the screen, go to : Discounts. From the Discounts Screen, go to Item Discount -%100.00, this will appy a 100 percent discount to the item and chage the order $0.00 dollars. Or Use the Discounts - 'Zero Out Order' button - This set all prices of the order to $0.00. Press "Exact Change" or one of the dollar payment methods to close out the order. ===== Mailing Lists ===== ==== Simple Option ==== You can export the list of customers from Office - CRM - Search Contacts.

In a situation like this, if there was a change made to a product count, you cannot track the change. * You should then disable the authorization to change the count - Office - Employees - Job Types. * And you should use Transaction's to adjust the inventory count. You can add new transaction types: - Office - (Main Toolbar) System - Order Types. Then make an Order Type called, "Inventory Adjustment" or anything that would indicate why you are using this transaction to adjust the inventory, such as waste etc. Use the Transaction they same way you would as a Purchase Order, and receive purchase orders.
