Just wondering can I use an order summary as a tax receipt? States the ABN and details?

Typically an order confirmation will not constitute a tax invoice. You should be able to find a tax invoice in your order details, alternatively email Officeworks to issue one.
ATO has fairly specific rules about what constitutes a valid tax receipt. First among them is it states that it is a Tax Invoice, includes the ABN, business address etc. Quick search on the ATO website will give you the answer.

Nahhh, it just needs to be intended as a Tax Invoice. The receipt does need to show the GST or Total inc GST component if applicable

For an entity, such as OW, that issues a tax invoice routinely (and automatically), it would be difficult to substantiate that a document titled "Order Confirmation" was intended as the tax invoice.
Officeworks will email you proper tax invoice once order shipped/collected
No
Depends if it’s your order summary or just got a hold of one to add to your tax deductible claims
summary as a tax receipt?
You could use it as a receipt (to prove an expense) but not as a tax invoice (to claim back GST).
An order confirmation is simply an acceptance of a contract of sale, meaning: Office Works has accepted your offer of intent to purchase an item, and in turn, accepted your payment. It's essentially an acknowledgement that your offer to purchase an item has met their terms of sale, and they subsequently accept your payment.
As noted above, once the item is shipped, the tax invoice will follow.
NOOOOOO….. your welcome.
you're going to have to confirm what you want to use it for?
but fairly sure the answer is no..unless there is a loophole
