Day End – Close GuestChecks

Before closing the (waiter) report period, all guest checks of the waiter should be closed. Otherwise there would be a difference between the turnover and the AT payment.

Example:

• Waiter 1 opens a guest check and books one beer at EUR 4.00. The guest check is not closed. Thus, the waiter produced a turnover of EUR 4.00 without receiving money, i.e. the AT payment is EUR 0.00.
  
  Turnover 4.00 (Value of the product flow)
  AT Payment: 0.00 (Value of the money flow)
  
  In the next book period, the waiter calls up the guest check again and settles it via the payment type “Cash”. The waiter report displays no turnover but an AT payment of EUR 4.00.
  
  Turnover 0.00 (Value of the product flow)
  AT Payment: 4.00 (Value of the money flow)
• Another example of the guest check account can be found in the chapter Day End – Waiter / Guest Check.

Two examples of reports can be found in the chapter Calendar Day, Booking Day, Periods, GuestChecks.
