The process for layby sales is the same as for cash sales with the exception of the initial payment process where a lesser amount than the sales value can be accepted.

Use this option to process the initial payment on a layby. Once the initial payment has been made, Micronet prints a layby docket detailing the sales value, payment made, balance due and optionally the date before which the next payment should be paid.
