Configure Headers and Trailers for Printed POS Reports

You can configure the printing of report headers and trailers for POS reports containing site specific information. Audit procedures in certain countries require them to generate POS reports containing such information. Printing information—such as the site’s business address or logo—on report headers (or trailers) helps to identify the source (or location name) of the data to which the report pertains.

This is a separate configuration from Configure Guest Check Headers and Trailers, and Customer Receipt Headers.

1. Select the Enterprise, property, or revenue center, click Descriptors, and then click either Report Headers or Report Trailers.

   Note:

   You can configure different report headers and trailers based on the scope your reports are generated from, such as the Enterprise, property, or revenue center level. For example, a property level report might contain different report headers/trailers than a revenue center level report. If desired, configure the report headers/trailers for each level.
2. From top to bottom, in ascending order, enter the information in the Text column as you want the header to print on the report.

   The Report Headers and Report Trailers modules each contain 12 lines which can be configured. You cannot insert new lines.

3. To print your company’s logo, select the Use Logo check box on any line.
4. From the Logo column, click the ellipsis button (...), and then select the logo.

   This configuration supports logo printing using the same image rules as existing header and trailer lines. See Introduction to Logo Printing for more information.

5. To create a blank space or a blank line between other header/trailer lines, define such lines on a lower line number. These blank spaces and lines print only when the populated lines are defined on a higher line number.

   You can only print a blank line between two other lines, not at the end. For example, if you define text on lines 1, 2, 3, and 5, there will be a blank line between 3 and 5. If you define text on lines 1, 2, 3, 4, and leave line 5 blank, then line 5 will not count as a blank line on the report.

6. Repeat Steps 1 through 5 to configure the Report Trailers module. The report trailer appears near the end of the printed report.
7. Click Save.
