Cash register reconciliation

At the cash register reconciliation the contents of the cash register is counted for sales that took place since the previous reconciliation and up until a point in time you define. The Cash register reconciliation is initiated from the Administration area. If you have not activated the End of Day always follows Cash register reconciliation function in the Options under the 'End day procedure' tab, you can carry out several cash register reconciliations per End of day procedure.

End of day procedure

This option is only active if the End of Day always follows Cash register reconciliation setting under the End of day procedure tab is turned off. By default this setting is turned on and thus the Cash register reconciliation and End of day procedure are undertaken as one routing process.

This function should be used routinely.

The Status fields give an overview of the key figures since the last End of day procedure.
