In the Norwegian version of LS Central, a sale that is not paid for in full at the till but is charged to a customer account is treated as a credit sale and printed as a Delivery Receipt. This is required by the Norwegian fiscal regulation for cash register systems.
When the Delivery Receipt prints
The Delivery Receipt header is printed automatically whenever a posted transaction has an outstanding amount on a customer account (the transaction's Amount to Account is different from zero). This typically happens when:
- the cashier closes the sale with a tender type whose Function is Customer, or
- part of the gross amount is left as receivable on a customer account.
What the receipt looks like
The receipt header includes two extra lines above the normal sub-header:
- DELIVERY RECEIPT — identifies the document as a delivery receipt rather than a sales receipt.
- NOT A — printed immediately below, signalling that the document is not a settled sales receipt and cannot be used as one.
The receipt body then contains a Credit: line that prints the sequential Credit No. assigned to the transaction:
Credit No. sequence
Each delivery receipt receives a unique, sequential Credit No. per store and POS terminal. The number is assigned when the transaction is posted and is stored on the Transaction Signature record. It increments by one for every new credit sale on the same terminal.
