Making a Sale or Redemption

This part of the tutorial handles making sales and redemptions. We will use a redemption as the example but the procedures are essentially the same for sales. The second last button on the left Sale/Redeem of the main screen will open up the screen that handles these transactions.

Once you click on it the Sales/redemption screen will open.

We are going to redeem the item we have just taken in pawn.

Click on New and the cursor will be in the Staff Number entry box. You might require to select a staff member but this time it will default to the only member you entered.
Once you hit Tab you will move into the CUSTOMER DETAILS area. We know we are dealing with an existing customer so hit ... at the end of the Number entry box.

Select the name of the customer you just entered and hit OK.
Now you can move directly into the table. Select Redeem from the drop down list in the Type column and then hit Tab.
Now click on the Select Item button and a list of this customers pawn items will be revealed. If this had been a sale transaction all the shop stock of second hand goods would have been revealed.
Select the item just taken in pawn and click OK.
Now the rest of the form has mostly self filled. Enter 140 in the Price column to cover the cash paid in redemption.
Click Accept and Print to print the redemption receipt.

Now you have finished entering a redemption. Click here to move on to the tutorial on how to make a police file, or here to return to the main tutorial page.
