Invoices

This section sets how invoices are issued and paid in Gizmo.

Options

Hold deposits for unpaid session time — when on, the part of the deposit that equals the cost of the unpaid time of the current session is blocked: it cannot be spent at the register or withdrawn from the deposit. This option is on by default.
Automatic guest login (after a deposit / time product sale) — when on, a guest account is signed in on the host automatically right after a deposit top-up or a time product purchase.
Auto delivery on sales from the Manager — when on, products and time products sold through Gizmo Manager are marked as delivered automatically, without the operator's confirmation.

Here you set up automatic invoicing and payment for each user group.

The table has these columns:

User Group — the group the settings apply to.
Auto Invoice — when on, the user is invoiced automatically when the session ends.
After Minutes — how many minutes after the session ends the invoice is issued automatically. Until the invoice is issued, the guest's billing period stays open: if the guest signs in again (for example, after the PC restarts), billing continues and the tariff's start fee is not charged again.
Auto Pay From Deposits — when on, the issued invoice is paid automatically from the user's deposit.
