Reward booking, no tax invoice?

Has Qantas changed the information they provide for award bookings. I booked an award today with Qantas for flights on Emirates, the confirmation came in ok. But the attached document was an "Itinerary Receipt". There was no receipt included for the $1500 in +++!!!!
This is rather annoying as reimbursement options are open to me for that co-pay, but not without a tax invoice/receipt.
Booking appears with Sri Lankan and have used Emirates to select seats already. Seems to be confirmed.
My previous award booking was in November 2024 and that had a tax invoice that showed the cash component.

I plan to call tomorrow, but asking in case there has been some kind of change.
 
Are you referring to an email titled "Confirmation and E-Ticket Flight Itinerary for xx_x", but it doesn't mention the cash portion of your payment?

There won't be a tax invoice for international flights since they don't contain GST, but the E-Ticket should still have the $1500 you paid written on it.

Yes, of course I'm referring to the confirmation email, that's why I said the confirmation was received.

As per my post, the document attached to that email had the title "itinerary receipt" and it contained no information about the cash component.

I have since received an email 16 hours later from Qantas Airways Ticketing with the cash component. But picture an old school dot matrix printout format to the email.

I'm not going to get into the semantics of what is a tax invoice, but I will note that award flights are sold in Australia and the point, what is a receipt? I thought it might be obvious that I want a receipt for the money paid. GST still involves receipts, right?
