Otherwise, enter the amount received from the customer against the appropriate payment type. You can dissect the amount across several payment types if required, e.g. if the customer pays partly by cash and partly by credit card. Options may include:

  • CASH – enter the full amount or enter more than the full amount for change to be given
  • CHEQUE – enter the amount to be paid by cheque. Micronet displays the Enter Banking Details screen where you should enter the cheque details then choose the OK button.
  • EFTPOS – for EFTPOS and card payments:
  • If the customer is paying by EFTPOS or credit card using Tyro, enter the payment amount as an EFTPOS payment type.
  • If the customer wants cash out, increase the amount entered in the EFTPOS payment type field by the amount of cash out required. The cash out is indicated by the value in the Change field.
  • If you just want to generate a cash out, create a zero dollar invoice with a payment amount.
  • AMEX – see the instructions for EFTPOS
  • DIRECT DEPOSIT
  • GIFT VOUCHER – see "POS Scheduler Pay - Voucher"
  • REBATE - this payment type is only displayed if your customer has rebates activated. You can enter the amount to be redeemed as all or part of the payment. You may need to check the Available Rebates first by performing a debtor rebate inquiry – see "Sales Desk Inquiries - Debtor".

The payment types displayed are setup in your company configuration – see "Edit Company - Edit - Payment Types".

Technical Tip

Items appearing on sales orders will appear as HELD items in the inventory files and will reduce the quantity Available displayed and reported for items.  Actual On Hand quantities displayed reduce when the goods have been delivered or picked up and a tax invoice has been printed.

If Micronet is configured to send invoices automatically in electronic DDO format (via the Inventory Configuration screen - refer to "Edit - Program - Invoicing"), Micronet opens a new email message in your default email program and attaches the electronic invoice to it. (If the invoice format belongs to the DDOINV group, the invoice will be attached in both PDF and DDO formats.) Enter the email recipient(s) and enter any message details before sending the invoice. You can resend the invoice if required using the Invoice Reprint program in MDS (refer to "Invoice Reprint - Edit - Recreate DDO Invoice Format" or "Invoice Reprint - Print - Recreate DDO Invoice Format (v2.8)").
