Sales Recording Module (SRM)

An SRM is a microcomputer designed to be connected to a cash register or POS system. It records transaction information such as sales and tax data in a secure memory. After data transmission begins, the SRM device sends the necessary information to a printer which prints a customer receipt with a barcode and information about the restaurant. The SRM is used to produce reports such as a Periodic Sales Summary Report which contains information on sales and transactions carried out over a given period.

Restaurant owners who are also a Quebec Sales Tax (QST) registrant must produce customer receipts using an SRM device and submit a receipt to the customer upon sale of a meal.
