Rolling Close

The register close process must be performed on each opened register for it to be rolled over into the next day.

Close each individual register one at a time manually without the need for till reconciliation. See Register/Till Close.

All registers and tills must be closed for the business period(s) in order to complete End Retail Period process.

End Retail Period

End Retail Period is a Back Office menu option that is required for 24–hour trading. It is initiated after all the tills have been counted using the Reconcile Register or Reconcile Till menu options. See Reconcile Register/Till. The store safe is counted during this process and the deposits confirmed. The End of Retail Period can be deferred to a later date.

The end of retail period process is needed to close a business date after the business period has closed and till reconciliation has completed. The End Retail Period process closes the books on the business date.
