Close the till at the end of the day

Closing a shift counts the drawer, records what is over or short and seals the trading day. It cannot be undone, so do it once and do it properly.

You need

• pos.cash-sessions.close

Steps

1. Open the shift on Shifts and press Close shift.
2. Count the drawer: enter, for each note and coin, the Denomination and How many. The Counted total adds itself up as you go.
3. You are counting blind on purpose. Expected in the drawer and Difference appear only once the count is committed — a count you can check against a total first is not a count.
4. Press Commit the count. The shift then reads Over, Short or Balanced.
5. Read the Cash-up (Z report): Gross sales, Tax collected, Refunds and the Tender types the shift took.

The till says it plainly: A shift cannot be reopened once it is closed. A correction is recorded as a new entry that says what it corrects. And one with sales still queued on it will not close at all: A shift cannot close while sales are still queued on this device, because the drawer would be counted against a total that is missing them. Reconnect and let the queue drain first.
