Print Zero-Total Transaction Discounts

Applies zero-total discounts, prints them on the receipt, and captures them in the TLog. By default this option is not selected.

Note Note

This is useful for preventing losses in employee transactions where the discount received on a purchased item is not printed on the receipt, and therefore the full price is refunded when items from that transaction are returned. This may happen when the total discounts on purchased items are equal to total discounts on returned items that occur in the same transaction. Since the discount totals net to zero, the discounts are not printed on the transaction invoice.

End of the note.

Note Note

A transaction may contain all items that are not eligible for transaction discounts. In such cases, the discount is not applied and not printed on the receipt even if the Print Zero-Total Transaction Discounts option is enabled.

Default value is ‘N’. If set to ‘Y’, then the system captures a clean copy of the receipt in a secondary journal file. When a receipt is reprinted at the POS, the system retrieves data from the secondary file to look similar to the original clean transaction with the addition of the word 'REPRINT' on the receipt.
