How do e-receipts work?
There are two ways to explain e-receipts. One is when you make a vendor payment, and the other is when a customer purchases something from you and requires a receipt.
When you pay your vendor:
In the first case, you will pay your vendor for the goods you purchased from them. The transaction has been completed, and the funds have been received. You've both received the bank notification. However, in the business world, you would also need a confirmation receipt from your vendor to add proof to your payment.
Assume you choose to receive a digital receipt from them. If your vendor has digital receipt generation software, their accounting team will enter transaction details, generate an e-receipt, and email it to you. If they do not have receipt management software and you are still hesitant to receive digital documents, they may scan and send a paper receipt.
When your customer purchases from you:
Sending digital receipts to customers contradicts what has been stated above. You are now the owner of a business, and you have a customer. They compensate you for the goods/services you provide. You send them a business receipt right away because you are smart and already have receipt management software. This is how it operates.
