Selecting Client (Upper left)

The client must be selected for this invoice if you wish to have transaction history attached to their record. Start typing the first or last name of the client in the Client field to narrow down the search. Typing a name into this field will populate names into the "Client" field. If there are similar names in your Client List, the program will narrow down the search by every additional letter you enter. You may also click on the drop-down arrow in the "Client" field to get a drop-down list of clients that you can select from. The magnifying glass icon can be used to search clients by name, phone number, email, address, zip code, and card Id.

Employee Information (Upper right)

An employee must be associated with each sale. This might only be the cashier, but the cashier must be selected. Since the program is sensitive to commissions, an employee is required. You may choose the "In House" employee for sales when an employee will not be receiving a commission.

The button to the left of the item selection field can display either Item Id or Barcode. The default option may be selected in the Company Settings. Clicking it will change the item search function to look up items via one of these two options:

  • If the button displays "Item Id" you may start typing in the Item Id of the service or retail product you would like to select and the program will narrow down the search with each character you type in.

  • When the button displays "Barcode" you may scan the product's barcode when your cursor is blinking in this field. The product will automatically appear in the Invoice area. The Barcode search will also allow you to look up a coupon promo code.
