Line Item

Definition

A line item is one entry on a receipt representing a single product or service, with its description, quantity, and price.

Each line item typically shows a description, the quantity purchased, the unit price, and the extended amount (quantity times unit price). Adding all line-item amounts together produces the subtotal. Clear line items make a receipt easy to verify, support returns of specific products, and let bookkeepers categorise spending accurately. Receipt Caker treats each line item as an editable row so quantities and prices can be adjusted while the totals recalculate automatically.
