In order to generate a receipt for a transaction in CosmoLex, you must use the document template and document assembly functions. We provide a payment receipt template, which you can locate and edit by going to Setup > Document Template > Transaction. Once you are ready to generate a receipt template for the desired transaction, follow the steps below.
Locating a Transaction
- From the left navigation panel, click Accounting.
- From the Accounting left navigation, click Bank.
- Either double-click the bank account, or single-click it to highlight it, and then from the toolbar, click Details.
- From the Banks left navigation, click Transaction. The transaction list will display.
Generating Receipt
- Select the desired transaction (if you can’t find it here, make sure you have the appropriate filters applied).
- From the toolbar, click Action > Generate Document.
The Generate Document screen opens, displaying the selected transaction’s transaction type in the Transaction field. - From the Document Template field’s drop-down, click the Sample Payment Transaction template.
- The Generate As field pre-fills with MS-Word (.docx).
