12.4.2 Column Positioning
Insert the COL nn command when you want to line up certain database fields
on the ticket. To position database fields, use the COL nn command ( nn =a
sequential number). The COL nn command must be followed by a space.
When you use multiple COL nn commands in one line, they must be in
sequential order.
Legal: COL20 [Account] COL50 [AccountName]
Illegal: COL50 [Account] COL20 [AccountName]
12.4.3 Static Text Fields
Static text fields are contained in double quotes ("). Character enclosed
in double quotes appear on the ticket, including spaces. Example:
"My Grain Elevator" = My Grain Elevator
"Gross" = Gross
"Tare" =Tare
"Net" = Net
12.2.4 Database Fields
Database fields are fields stored in the TransAct database. A database field
is placed on a ticket by enclosing the field name in brackets ([ ]).
Below is an example of how you can use static text and database fields
together on a ticket. The example will print the ticket number, weight in,
date in, weight out, date out, and net weight on the ticket.
"Ticket Number: " [Ticket Number]
"Gross: " [Weight In]" " [Date In]
"Tare: " [Weight Out]" "[Date Out]
"Net: "[Net Weight]
The tables on the following pages list the database field names you can use
in the ticket format file.
