  3. If the Gift Receipt function key is pressed in the SKU or Tender fields then when the transaction is completed a gift receipt will print.
  4. If the End of Sale prompt (defined in General Parameters) has a “<G> = Gift Receipt” prompt the cashier can enter a “G” at the end of the transaction to be prompted for the number of receipts to print. This can be changed in General Parameters. (POS-02-01, S2)

Possible prompts include: <>=transaction complete, <V>=V_alidate, <R>=R_eprint, <G>=G_ift receipt.

If the flag is set to prompt for the number of receipts then the following prompt will appear. Entering zero will result in no gift receipt being printed. Pressing the Enter key will cause one receipt to be printed.
