Custom number sequence on receipt

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by JeffreyPW 228

We have a location where they are given a receipt number range that must be included on each receipt. Say the range that is valid for the period is 00011001 - 00021000

For example, they are given a starting receipt number of 000-001-01-00011001 and it should autoincrement.

I dont think i can simply change the receipt number format because we wouldnt be able to set those numbers to start at a certain number right? We can only use like ####? I dont think this will work.

We dont have control over the transaction number either, so i cant use that.

Are there any other fields that can be used for this which are natively available on receipt formats? Hoping to avoid customization.

All i need is the ability to put a user configurable number sequence on a receipt.

Thoughts?

    Hello, and thank you for raising this requirement. Can you point me toward the actual regulations that are mandating this requirement? I think there's a technical solution to the requirement as you've described above, but as we design this feature, I want to make sure we're covering all the cases. Thank you.

    Okay, thanks for responding... So let me give exacts:

    We get a number like this 000-001-01-00042501.... that needs to be printed on every sale receipt auto incrementing.. So the next one will need to be 42502, 42503, 42504, etc...

    So how would i setup something like that on a receipt? Using just SSSS MM DD YY TTTT #### in receipt numbering doesnt seem to offer something like that since you cant control the current/next receipt number and only have the option to reset..?

    If I understood you correctly, why you don’t setup range as a constant ? For example :

    #####-00021000
