Understanding the Monthly Turnover report

The Monthly Turnover report breaks down your daily sales over the course of a month into either gross sales or net takings. Gross sales are broken down by accounting group, and net takings are broken down by payment type.

Viewing Gross results (sales)

Viewing the Monthly Turnover report by Gross results will breakdown each day’s sales over the course of the month. You can select a specific day to see sales broken down by accounting group.

• Sales excl. tax: The value of sales processed through the POS, before tax.
• Taxes: The value of taxes collected that day.
• Gross result: The combined total of pretax sales and taxes collected.

Viewing Net results (takings)

Viewing the Monthly Turnover report by Gross results will breakdown each day’s collected payments over the course of the month. You can select a specific day to see how much of each payment type was collected.

• Takings of the day: The total of payments accepted at the POS.
• Carried over from previous day: The total of transitory orders carried into the current day’s reporting.
• Carried forward to next day: The total of open orders carried forward from the current day to the following day’s reporting.
