A sales receipt is issued at the time of payment for goods or services.

When drawing up a sales receipt, it is prohibited to use generalized phrases. For example, you cannot write: "Fishing tackle purchased for the amount of 1100 rubles." Each product must be entered separately, for example: "5 pieces of bait for a fishing rod at the price of 10 rubles; fishing line 5 pieces at 10 rubles; 1 piece of fishing rod at the price of 1,000 rubles."
Step 4
At the end of the document, the total amount for the document is indicated and the signature of the responsible person is put. It is not necessary to put a seal when drawing up a sales receipt if all columns of the document are filled in.
Step 5
Keep the sales receipt for the entire period for which the warranty for the purchased product or service is given. A sales receipt is the primary document, therefore, its storage period for organizations is 5 years.
