The following is a screen image that shows the Enumerators used in the Transaction Receipt.

“Enumerator” Element

This element is used as an alias for the ‘for-each loop’ on the object. Once the object name is specified in the ‘object’ attribute, then all the sub-objects and properties can be accessed directly inside the enumerator element.

Sample XML

<Enumerator object="Transaction.SalesPersons">

<Row>

<Element colspan="4" align="left" object0="User.Id" object1="User.FirstName" object2="User.MiddleName" object3="User.LastName" string="Sales Person: {0}, {1} {2} {3}"/>

</Row>

</Enumerator>

The “Enumerator” element has the following attributes:

1. An object: : refers to the object property on which the looping needs to be executed.

Note: There will be at least one <Row> element and multiple <Element> elements based on the element colspan value.

2. “Header” element:

Sample XML

<Header>

<Separator object="-"/>

<Row>

<Element colspan="4" align="left" string="Delivery Items"/>

</Row>

<Separator object="-"/>

</Header>

The “Header” element has no attributes and it is more about providing separation in the code to identify different sections in the report.

3. “BlankLine” element:

Sample XML

<BlankLine/>

The BlankLine element does not have any attributes and is used to give blank rows in the receipt.

4. “PaperCut” element.

Sample XML

<PaperCut/>

The “PaperCut” element does not have any attributes and is used to give a paper cut feature in the receipt if supported by the hardware.

5. “Signature” Element

Sample XML

<Signature width="250" alignment="center"></Signature>

The "Signature" element will print the signature capture for the card payments by the customer on the receipt.
