In some cases, it is necessary to print a free-form document for an order, and the standard print options — such as receipts, pre-bills, service print, etc. — are not suitable for that. For example, when using the booking option, a customer asks to print the list of dishes, their prices, and other information about the upcoming banquet. 

Creating Print Layout

RK 7 has a special document type that is called User document:

In this section, you can create individual printing layouts. The data set available in this section is roughly the same as in a bill, receipt, or other similar documents. The main difference is that printing of this layout does not involve additional operations, while a bill, for example, makes an order uneditable, and a receipt requires order payment before being printed.

The procedure in this section is absolutely the same as with any other printing layout:

1. Create a new document
2. Open a layout for editing
3. Place bands on the sheet and put memos or nested bands into them.

Save the layout and create a printing view for it.

Creating a Button for Printing a Layout form the POS Interface

Once the layout and its print representation are ready, you can move on to implementing the function of printing it from the POS.

1. In Service Scripts of the Operations section, you create a new script containing:

RK7.PerformRefObject(RK7.FindItemByCode(rkrefMaketSchemeDetails, 88)); (where 88 is the code of printed representation for the created layout)

1. Next, you take any unused user operation in Service Operations and rename it as you please. In the Script property, you indicate the script from par. 1:
2. Then you create a new function button to which you link the operation from par. 2:
3. Place the function button in the relevant selector:
4. Indicate the selector in the Using Selectors (Fig. 7):

Now, when this function button is pressed, your user layout will be printed.

Applications
