You can set up printing of the delivery note on a receipt tape or A4 sheet.

Before setting up the delivery note printing, make sure you have a ready-made layout or create one.

In r_k Delivery fill in the fields:

  • Print format — select the format on which the delivery note will be printed
    • A4 sheet — You can create an A4 sheet template yourself. Read more about creating a template in the article Delivery Note
    • Receipt tape — r_k Delivery takes the receipt tape template from the r_keeper management station. Read more about creating a receipt tape template in the article Delivery Note on Receipt Tape  
  • Cash register ID — please specify the cash register ID
  • Document Presentation Guid — please specify the document GUID. 
  • Print the delivery note immediately after the order is transferred to the kitchen — Enable this setting to print the receipt tape delivery note automatically after the order is sent to the kitchen. The field is only available when a receipt tape is selected.

The cash register ID and GUID should be taken from the r_keeper management station.
To speed up the work and minimize errors, instead of manual entry, select an option from the drop-down list.


Cash register ID

The cash register ID in r_keeper can be found as follows:

  1. Go to r_keeper manager station
  2. Go to the menu Service > Stations and devices
  3. Select your restaurant
  4. Select the cash register server and go to the Cash Register Stations tab
  5. Select the cash register and go to its Properties
  6. Expand the Main section and find the Identifier field. Copy the number
  7. Paste this number into the ID field of the cash register station in the r_k Delivery system.

Document GUID

The GUID of a document in r_keeper can be found as follows:

  1. Go to Settings > Printing > Documents & Layouts
  2. Find the layout you want to use for delivery
  3. Go to its properties and copy the GUID

  4. Insert this number into r_k Delivery.

Please note: The selected layout must be added to the print schemes and usage rules must be configured for it.

To add a layout to print schemes:

  1. In the r_keeper management station, go to the menu Settings > Printing > Printing schemes
  2. Select a group of print views
  3. In the Document views field, right-click and select Add document view
  4. Select the desired layout and click OK
  5. Save changes.

Now you need to set the rules for using this print scheme. To do this:

  1. In the r_keeper management station, go to the menu Settings > Print > Using print schemes
  2. In the window that opens, in the left field, select the document presentation group
  3. In the right field - the rules of use. For the correct operation of print schemes for delivery notes, make sure that there are no restrictions, in particular by table, order category, order type
  4. Save the changes. 

Now the selected layout will work correctly for the delivery note. 


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 group for orders
  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 on the note on the receipt tape instead of the order number.
