Technical Support: Daily Close-out Procedures

1. Total the Registers using the SLTL program #01 Total Routine. 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 Option #1 so that, if you are printing the checks, A/R invoices, and Credit Card numbers, the file will be cleared for the next days information.
   Note: If you are totaling out individual registers during the day, be sure to add the totals together at the end of the day so all sales information will be in the sales journal.
   
2. Do the daily backup.
   (The Following may be done at the end of the day or first thing the following work day. We recommend you do these next steps first thing the following work day)
   
3. Run the SLAR program to post charges, credit memos, and payments to Accounts Receivable Accounts that have been done 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.)
   
4. Run the SLIV program. It is very important that all received orders have been merged into inventory before running this program as this program keeps your inventory correct.
   
5. Run the SLTP program. This must be started when the cash registers are not logged-in, but they may be brought up after printing has started.
   
6. Go into the SLE program. Enter the cash for the day. You may make any adjustments not made at the cash register such as a void sale that was not voided. (Be sure you correct your inventory if the void sale was an inventory item.)
