10.1.3.6
Sum Blocks
The addition of sum blocks #2 and #3 (chapter 10.1.3 " Summary of Text
Modules " / page 200) makes it easier to switch between two currencies
(e.g. EUR and GBP).
In the interim sum block #2 can be used to print two currencies on the
receipts. Internally all prices are computed in the respective "applicable"
currency (parameter 3.1.4.3.1). However, on the invoice an additional
amount (in the alternative currency) as well as the respective exchange
rate may be printed.
After the introduction of the EURO the £ has become the alternative
currency. All prices which had been defined in the national currency
before will have to converted. Especially for the prices of liquid product it
is absolutely advisable to use a price factor in order to keep the
conversion loss small.
Example:
In Belgium prices are normally defined by factor "1", i.e. the price
per liter. At the same time the exchange rate EURO to BEF is
about 40. In order to keep pricing continuously precise, the price
factor "100" (price per 100 liters) should be introduced.
10.1.4 Control Printout
The layout of the receipt can be printed for test purposes to check the
created receipt definition in menu 3.4.5 "Print form". Here, placeholders
are printed for the text which is to be printed later, e.g. "Sum block" or
also "Receipt title". The line and column positioning however does not
differ from the actual printout.
