Note Life Span
In order to preserve database size, notes are typically stored with open transactions and deleted when
the transaction is completed. To store notes with completed transactions, set the
Note Life Span value
to the number of days you would like to have notes stored. The note will be stored for that number of
days beyond the transaction date. A value of 366 saves notes indefinitely.
It is recommended that note fields be stored for as short a period as possible. For example, if a ticket
will not be reprinted once it has been invoiced, set the
Note Life Span field to 31 days.
Immediate Ticket
To skip the “Next Item” prompt during a transaction, place an ‘x’ in the Immediate Ticket box.
Figure 82. Print Ticket Decision box
The Print Ticket Decision box will not appear and a ticket will print immediately when the Print Ticket
button is clicked.
NOTE: This feature cannot be used with the Multiple Items per Ticket or Enable Ticket Hold
feature. These two features are automatically turned off when Immediate Ticket is turned
on.
Multiple Items per Ticket
When Multiple Items per Ticket is turned on, items for different category types and units of measure can
be placed on the same ticket. Using a landfill application as an example, a single ticket could contain
separate items for garbage, tires, and appliances. A charge for each item is calculated and stored
separately in the database. They can be grouped together and totaled when printing a ticket.
Click the check box to turn Multiple Items per Ticket on. An ‘x’ in the box indicates the feature is on.
