Cash Payments / Process Ticket Payment
- Heidi Adams
Overview
Customers are able to pay for transactions at the time of the transaction. These transactions are considered "cash" transactions. They will not be billed or invoiced later. Acceptable payment types are cash, check, or credit card.
Account Terms

When an account's terms are set to Cash Only, the Cash payment type will be set. The customer must make a payment at the time of the transaction. The None option will not be available.
