Print their listing. Also provide a copy of the bill of sale (hopefully describing the part for what it is). If it just provides a part number, see if you can cross-reference the number to a diagram or description (e.g. using another website that sells the part).
The inspector will have to make a ruling on whether that's enough proof—odds are it will be, but if the bill is just a piece of old-fashioned cash register tape, maybe a business card or something will help your case.

Be careful for items over $400. Cost accounting rules may come into play (potentially even if you can convince them to give you one for free).
