  Remarks can me required for some Price types, but by default, none are selected. 
  There are some remarks that are used with some regularity:
  • Free amount allowed: for items that may be given a different rate than set in sales period 
    (think donation; checkout items with discount).
  • Validity change allowed: for items where a different validity is given than set in sales period or capacity 
    (think checkout items with adjusted validity) 
  • No barcode required: For these Price types, no ticket code is generated at issue. 
    This is mainly used for POS items that are sold, but never scanned.

For a combishop pricetype the category defines in which journey the pricetype will show.

POS Printer and Printtemplate settings

The POS print and template settings can be set by Price type. ‘Receipt printer’ provides a print through the receipt printer and the ‘Ticket printer’ provides a print through a ticket printer (e.g. Boca). The ticket printer often has pre-printed tickets lying around that have a barcode and validity printed on them at the time of sale.

The print template is a template where the layout of the print is prepared. For a template via a Ticket printer, it is necessary for the layout to fit on the pre-printed cards. For checkout items you only want to sell, not scan at entrance, choose NoPrint.

When the item is ready and all settings are correct, the new Price type can be saved by clicking on ‘Save’.
