DAILY CLOSEOUT PROCEDURES

  1. Total the registers using the SLTL "Total All Registers” option.  This will enter the sales for the day in the Sales Journal on the day the registers are totaled.  The register totals will be cleared.

Note:   If you are totaling out individual registers during the day, make sure the last total of the day is “Total All Registers.”   Then, if you are printing the checks, A/R invoices, and credit card numbers, the file will be cleared for the next day’s information.

  1. Run the SLAR program to post charges, credit memos, and payments to Accounts Receivable accounts that have been made at the Point of Sale.  (If closing out the month and writing statements, run SLAR after the last day of the month, then do not run again until the accounts are set up for a new month.)
     

  2. Run the SLIV program.  It is very important that all received orders have been merged into inventory before running SLIV, as this program keeps your inventory correct.
     

  3. You may run the SLCC program for a report of the electronic credit card transactions for the day.
     

  4. Run the SLTP program.  This must be started when the cash registers are not logged in, but they may be logged in after printing has begun.
     

  5. In the SLE program, enter the cash for the day.  You may make any adjustments that were not made at the cash register, such as a void sale that was not voided.  (Be sure to correct your inventory if the void sale was an inventory item.)
     

  6. You may change the default due date on video rentals for the following day, by pressing <V> <Enter> at the POS “Item #” field.  Select the Set Due Date command button.  Enter the date and select OK.

  1. Do the daily backup. (The backup can be automated using the BSMGR scheduler)
