Bar Tab - Header Fields
The fields that you can use when you design the Form Template to be used by the Bar Tab form are listed on two pages, as follows:
---
Header Fields (these print once per Bar Tab). If you do not want to print the decimal places in numeric fields, choose the Cut Decimals option in the record in the Values in Text setting for the Language specified in the Company Info setting. This will remove the decimals even in fields where you have used the Field Argument to control the rounding.
Please refer to the 'USB/Wifi Receipt Printers with user-definable print-outs' section on the USB/Wifi Receipt Printers with user-definable print-outs page for guidelines that will be useful when designing the Form Template.
