There are several different types of comments you might need to include on your invoices or receipts. All the things you might include fall into two basic categories: comments that are unique and comments you use repeatedly.

Unique comments are those that would differ from one sale to the next, and are rarely, if ever, the same. The sales clerk enters the information at the time of the sale (refer to One-Time Comments for instructions on entering unique comments during transaction entry).

If you have information that your clerks repeatedly include on invoices/receipts, you can use Comment Codes to help streamline the entry process. For example, you might use these codes to include return policies, upcoming promotion information, or store hours. Comment Codes are not associated with specific stock items, but can be included in any transaction (see Setting Up Prompts for comments specific to stock items).
