but to get you going, here’s what I used when I was first starting out:

Display format as such:
{REPORT TICKET DETAILS:[T.Note]:(TEN.Tables=$1) and (TS.Status=Unpaid) and Ticket.Note != null}

But that won’t display the table name if there’s no note so prepend $1<br/> if you want table number when note is empty.

I never got around for formatting the display for when a bill is requested as we didn’t have/need a printer behind the bar. So you’ll have to figure that out if it is something you’ll be using.

I would recommend, however, to use a ticket tag for the customer’s name. That way you can keep ticket note for, what I assume to be, its original purpose: notes to the kitchen, etc.
