Find Receipt

The Find Receipt function is opened through P.O.S. / Find Receipt on the main menu.  It can also be opened by pressing the Ctrl-L key.

This function is used to locate a previous P.O.S. receipt.  This is especially helpful for returns, but it can also be used for other purposes.  For instance, by entering an item code and perhaps a date range, you can get a list of all receipt line-items for that item.

Note that this will only show transactions that were entered through the P.O.S. sales entry dialog, not through the normal Transactions dialog.

There are three ways you can look for receipts -- by date, by receipt #, or by inventory item code.  A date range can be combined with either the receipt # or inventory code search if necessary.  After checking the appropriate options and entering text to search for, press Enter or click Search.  All receipt line-items matching the criteria will be shown (thus a single receipt may be represented by many lines in the results).

If you want to view a particular receipt in its entirety, double-click on the line (or select it and press the View button).  The P.O.S. dialog will open with all of the transactions in that receipt.  From there, you can return items or print another copy of the receipt.

When you're done viewing and/or changing that receipt, the Find Receipt window will still be open in case you need to look at others.

When you're finished with finding receipts, click Cancel.
