There is a way to manage gift certificates in Noterro. It may or may not be suitable.
You could run a Product Report on gift certificates to see the total amount of gift certificates sold is a set period of time. You could then run a Payment Method report for that same time period to see what was redeemed.
I will explain on how you would handle this in two separate cases.
Case One: Non-client purchase for Non-client
1. Create a new client profile first name Miscellaneous last name Account (You will use this account to sell all your gift certificates). Add a product named Gift Certificate (click on the gear icon and under the billing settings click products.
2. Give them the paper copy of your gift certificate
Case Two: Non-client purchase for Existing Client
1. Create a new client profile first name Miscellaneous last name Account (You will use this account to sell all your gift certificates). Add a product named Gift Certificate (click on the gear icon and under the billing settings click products.
2. Give them the paper copy of your gift certificate
3. When the client redeems the gift certificate, apply the amount of the gift certificate to credit on the client's account. To put credit on the account, click on the client's name, click on the billing tab, click on the Add Payment button, select Gift Certificate and follow the steps (add gift certificate number as a note if you wish).
