Item Description Setup in CStoreOffice®

In CStoreOffice®, you can set up the item description in the following fields of the item setup form:

  • Item Description: This field is mandatory and used to set up the full item description. It is configured in the Global Item Attributes section.

  • Receipt CR Description: This field is mandatory and used to set up the short item description. The field size is limited to 20 symbols. It is configured in the Account Item Attributes section. By default, the Receipt CR Description field is populated automatically with the value from the Item Description field. You can modify it then and enter the value you need manually.

For more information on how to set up item attributes, see Setting Up Item Attributes.

You can define what item description to print on your receipts. In the Cash Register form > SmartPOS section:

  • Select the Send full item description in update option, to print the Item Description field's value on the receipts.
  • Unselect the Send full item description in update option, to print the Receipt CR Description field's value on the receipts.

Please note that only one option, either Item Description or Receipt CR Description, can be printed on the receipt from the SmartPOS cash register.
