Bar Tab

This page describes the Bar Tab form in the Restaurant module.

---

The Bar Tab form allows you to print Bar Tabs in batches.

The Bar Tab form will not print any Items in a Bar Tab that have been voided using the "Void Item" button. This separates the Bar Tab form from the Bar Tab Receipt form, which will include voided Items.

If the Bar Tab being printed has not been finished, it will printed with a "Test Printout" watermark. If you do not need this watermark, select the No Test printout option in the Optional Features setting in the System module. If the Bar Tab has been finished it will be printed with a "Copy" watermark, which is not optional (finishing a Bar Tab will cause it to be printed automatically using the Bar Tab Receipt form, so all subsequent printings will be copies).

You can also print an individual Bar Tab using the Bar Tab form using the following methods:

  • Bar Tabs will be printed automatically using the Bar Tab form if you have specified in the Auto Actions setting in the System module that Bar Tabs will be printed An Insert or At Insert & Update and providing the Bar Tab will not be printed on a fiscal printer (i.e. providing the Customer is not one in which the Fiscal Invoices Only check box has been ticked).

  • The "Finish and Print" button will first print a Bar Tab using the Bar Tab Receipt form (providing the Bar Tab will not be printed on a fiscal printer) and then using the Bar Tab form.

  • The "Print Tab" button will print a Bar Tab using the Bar Tab form.

  • The "Print Preview" button will print a preview of a Bar Tab to screen using the Bar Tab form.

  • If you have selected the Print Receipt option in the Restaurant Settings setting, a Bar Tab will be printed automatically using the Bar Tab form after you register a payment using the "Pay" button.
