Attention! Do Not Use Special Characters in Labels!

When creating and naming Registers and Receipt Tapes,   do NOT use unsupported special characters.

 

Yard Sale supports Letters "A, a, B, c, etc",  Numbers "1, 13, 2014, etc" and the dash "-" character in Register names and Receipt Tape labels.

There are other special characters that can be used in Register names and Receipt Tape labels, but it is up to the user to verify they work.  If you cannot complete and "Submit" a transaction to the Receipt Tape, an unacceptable special character in the label is most likely the problem.

The dash "-" is supported to separate numbers in dates for example.

This date format is supported in Receipt Tape labels:   1-16-2014

Do NOT use the forward slash "/" in Register names or Receipt Tape labels, it corrupts the file names.

This date format is NOT supported: 1/13/2014 

If you are going to use Credit Card Terminal with Yard Sale, do NOT use "test" or "Test" in the Register Name.
