Day report and close

The day report is the end-of-service document: what was sold, how it was paid for, and whether the cash adds up. It opens from Day report & close at the top of the Reports screen and is titled Day / Shift Report.

Plans
Brasserie, Signature, Enterprise
Can it be switched off?
No. It is part of every plan that includes it and cannot be switched off.
Needs first
POS and in-house orders. This stays off until all of them are in your plan and switched on.

Money → Reports → Day report & close. Set the Business date at the top; the report reloads for whichever day you pick, so you can reconcile yesterday this morning.

Reading the report needs tenant.reports.financial or tenant.register.day_close. Closing the day needs tenant.register.day_close — managers and cashiers have it, waiters do not.

Report type switches what the body shows:

Type Shows
Summary Payment-method totals and the cash reconciliation
By item Item sales: Item and Qty, so you can see what actually sold
By order Every order in the day, with method, status and amount

By item is the one to use when you are deciding what to prep tomorrow. It says No items sold on this day. when the day is empty, which on a day you know was busy means the orders were never completed — check Orders before you believe the report.

The Cash reconciliation block is the reason this screen exists.

  • Expected cash is calculated: opening float, plus cash sales, plus and minus every recorded movement. You cannot type it.
  • Counted cash is what you physically counted. You type it.
  • Variance is the difference, and it is shown only after the day is closed.
  • Note is where you explain the variance. Use it every time there is one.

Then Close day.

A variance is not a disaster; an unexplained variance is. A consistent small shortfall is usually change-making, a consistent large one is usually a missed safe drop, and a one-off large one is worth reading the register-session history over.

Three buttons sit at the top of the report:

  • Print receipt sends a 58 mm version to the location’s active printer, through the same print path as a kitchen ticket. If no printer is configured it says so rather than failing silently — see Orders not printing.
  • Print page uses the browser’s own print dialogue, for A4.
  • Download CSV downloads the current report type, so By item and By order export different files.

Export for accounting is a separate dropdown listing the accounting providers you have connected. It exports in that provider’s format rather than a generic CSV — see Accounting integrations.

Below the reconciliation, Register sessions (cash drawers) lists the tills themselves: “Per-device till opens, closes, and cash removals with staff identity for this business day.” That panel has its own page — Drawer shifts, floats and safe drops.
