The oil sticker will print the text you enter in the Comment field in the location you select in the Position dropdown list. It is common to print something like "Your Next Visit is Due" at the top or your company's slogan at the bottom. |

The Prompting setting determines if R.O. Writer prints or prompts you to print an oil sticker from an open ticket if that ticket includes labor that is configured to print oil stickers.
|
When Never is selected, oil stickers never print automatically. You can only print oil stickers on-demand from open tickets. |
|
When Prompt is selected, the Print Oil Sticker prompt appears when you print the work order or finalize the repair order. The prompt appears only once.
Whenever the prompt appears, you can modify some of the oil sticker information before printing the sticker. |
|
When Always is selected, the oil sticker prints when you print the work order. No prompt appears. You cannot review or edit the information on the sticker before printing. The sticker prints as configured. The oil sticker prints only once; it does not print again when you finalize. If you do not print a work order, the sticker prints when you finalize. |
