Receipt tape

To print on a receipt tape, you must specify the layout view Guid. 

You can download the layout template and find out more detailed information about it in the article Delivery note on receipt tape.

Adding an order number to the layout

To add an external order number from the r_k Delivery system to the layout:

  1. In the r_keeper manager station menu, go to Settings > Setup > Advanced Properties
  2. Select the Properties for orders group
  3. Right-click the Extended Property Types field and select New Extended Property Type
  4. Set the title and system name — extordername
    Please note the case: the system name and title must be written in lowercase letters.

  5. Save the changes.

Done, the extended property is now available for selection in the layout under the name [Orders.extordername]. 

If the extordername property is missing, an error will be displayed in the delivery note on the receipt tape instead of the order number.


A4 format

The delivery note is set up according to a template for the entire corporation and is applied to each establishment.

When you start working with the system, there is already a pre-installed template main_template.html. You can customize it for yourself or create your own template.
