Reports and the day close on the device

Reports on the device is a working set of numbers for the floor, plus the screen that ends the restaurant day. The deeper analysis lives in the web dashboard — Reports overview.

Plans
Brasserie, Signature, Enterprise
Can it be switched off?
No. It is part of every plan that includes it and cannot be switched off.

Pick a period — Today, This Week, This Month or This Year — and you get:

Total Revenue · Total Orders · Avg. Order Value · Total Tips

then three breakdowns: Revenue by Date, Revenue by Method and Revenue by Type.

Day report prints in three shapes, and they answer different questions:

Type Use it for
Summary The one-page end-of-day figure
By item What sold, for the kitchen and for ordering
By order A line per order, for checking something specific

Print day report needs a printer registered to this device. Without one:

No active registered printer

This is the end-of-day cash count for the whole restaurant, and it is not the same thing as a till shift. The screen says so:

Day expected cash = settled cash tenders for this business day (no opening float). Separate from Cash drawer shifts below — close the till shift first if one is still open.

Two things follow from that. Opening floats are excluded — the day figure is sales, not drawer contents. And a till shift still open blocks a clean day close, which is what the open-till warning on this screen is telling you.

Each till appears as its own row — Till Front (#2) — with its Opening float, Cash sales and Till expected.

Then you enter Counted cash, and the screen shows Variance, or Projected variance where a till is still open and its final figure is not in yet.

Where blind counting is on, you have to commit a number before the screen will show you what it expected:

Enter counted cash first — expected amount is shown after you count (blind count).

Close day ends the business day. Once closed, the screen shows who did it and when — Closed by Dana at 11:42 pm — and the button becomes Update day close for a correction.

Day report and close covers what closing the day means for accounting and for the next day’s figures.
