Sales History Overview

Sales History Overview

The sales history is a feature that allows you to see and access all the transactions that you have made with your point of sale system. You can use the sales history overview to find:

•  Filter and search for a specific sale by date, number, source, customer, status, or other criteria.
•  View the details and outcomes of each sale, such as the products, prices, discounts, taxes, payments, and receipts.
•  Complete or fulfill the sales that are pending or overdue, such as back-orders, lay-by, on-account, or parked orders.
•  Refund, void, or exchange the sales that are completed or canceled, either partially or fully.
•  Print/email your sales history data for reporting or accounting purposes.

You will find the Sales history under Point of sale section in Hike.
