How to set up Wintix so tickets won’t print without a payment using a credit card

(Last updated on: August 26, 2014)

One of our Wintix users had a clerk who was mistakenly allowed to print tickets on a sale where the credit card was not processed for payment.

To prevent this so tickets will not print without an authorization/approval code, go to:

  • File | Initialization | click on the Sale settings tab
  • UNcheck the box Print tickets in a sale without payment

dont print tix

  • Click Save settings
  • Now, when you try to print tickets to a sale where the credit card has not been processed and there is no authorization/approval code, you will receive the following message:
    • This is a credit card sale and the authorization is blank.  Therefore, the tickets will not be printed now.

auth blank

  • You will need to go back into the sale record and process the credit card before the tickets can be printed.
