Printing Receipts

Receipts can be printed from a bank deposit journal, a bank ledger, a general journal, a general ledger, or an AR ledger using the Print>Receipts command. This command can only be run on simple transactions or distribution items of complex transactions. To print receipts for all distribution items in a complex transaction, mark them in a block.

NewViews provides you with a selection of predefined receipt templates suitable for pre-printed forms or blank paper. You can easily modify these templates or create your own. See Document Templates for more information.

Direct email Option for Receipts

Receipts may also be created as an email attachment (PDF format) and sent directly from NewViews. See email Print Settings for more.
