Some of the routines have the ability to print custom receipts with the receipt format and text defined by the customer. The text is constant but variable data fields need to be inserted into the text at predefined locations. The fields defined below are to be used to insert into text documents. To use a field enter the field, case sensitive, between two backslashes "\". For example the following phase would insert the loan number and the date the loan was made into the text:

Your loan number \L01\ made on \D02\ is due and payable now.

The fields that may be used are:

 \D01\                Today's date

 \D02\                The date the loan was made

 \D03\                The original maturity date of the loan

 \D04\                The current Extended maturity date of the loan

 

 \L01\                The loan number

 

 \$01\                Loan amount

 \$02\                Service charge for 30 days or one month

 \$03\                Daily service charge

 \$04\                Payment amount, for memos the amount paid today

 

The text files that are used for the various customer sales slips are:

 

 PWNA00.TXT        Affidavits for a lost ticket

 PWNE00.TXT        Memos of extension

 PWNL00.TXT        Language tables English to Spanish

 PWNP00.TXT        Purchase (buys) receipts

 

The language translation file is: PWNL00.TXT. The fields defined in the file are three: the word number, the English word, and the Spanish word. Enter the three fields separated by the back slash "\". For example:

13\Change\Cambio

Note that the text words have a maximum of thirty characters and the back slash cannot be used in the words because it is the "separator" character.
