What is the difference between the receipt, the invoice and the barcode label?

A laundry prints three different things, and each has a purpose the others cannot serve.

The invoice

From the order page press Print invoice — Figure 1. It is an A4 sheet with the laundry and customer details, the lines and the total; it suits companies, hotels and anyone who needs a formal document.

The receipt

Press Print receipt — Figure 2. This is the small thermal-printer size, handed to the customer at drop-off and brought back at collection.

The barcode label

Press Print Barcode Label — Figure 3. This is the barcode for the whole order, stuck on the bag or the hanger so the order opens with a single scan. Piece tags, by contrast, are one per piece.

Notes

  • The receipt prints automatically when you save an order from the POS screen.
  • Set your company details and logo once in General Settings and they appear on every printout.
  • Never hand pieces over without a receipt or a barcode scan; that is where laundry disputes come from.
