3 Overview This module allows the user to create invoices and credit notes (otherwise known as adjustment notes). These documents can be created by scanning inventory, adding manually and/or by selling from a special order, reservation or an approval. A customer account must be setup by one of the nominated types and used when creating either an invoice or a credit note. If a customer is approved for credit then the account must be flagged a Regular Debtor during the setup process. All other account types will require payment for an invoice to be raised. These documents have been designed to print to A4 paper only. Importantly, to ensure that there is a comprehensive record of all invoices and credit notes issued, BookNet will store the details of any invoice or credit note raised in a database for further reference as well as maintaining a document registered when each document is issued. There are two separate types of formatting for BookNet Invoices, the first being the standard format (see page 3 fo r an example of this) or the second type which allows for a purchase order to be included against each line item sold (see page 3 for an example of this). It is important to note when setting up a Direct Invoice Terminal that it MUST be treated as a separate POS number and this POS number then updated to the Transaction Processor in order for the sales to be updated.

8 End of Day process A Direct Invoicing Terminal is allocated a POS number and therefore is a part of the POS Register Report. End of Day (EOD) does not have to be done daily on Direct Invoicing, unless required. Once a Direct Invoicing POS EOD has been processed, the Z request must then be cleared from the POS Sales Register Report, this is generally done once all shop POS s required have a yellow Ready and a red Z assigned, this report can then be run. Process 1. Open BookNet menu Sales > Direct Invoicing 2. Click on End Of Day 3. Click on OK 4. Click Quit Example of an End of Day Report from Direct Invoicing (this is equivalent to the Z report from POS s receipt printer) ** Please refer to the Point of Sale workbook for more information on the POS Register Report and how to print this.
