Available from Release 1.377 onwards…
- Scenario1:
- Z report or shift should run on station basis not user wise, i.e.
- if one user log in a station & makes transactions and he log off, in the same time another user logs in same station & continue with transaction, when he enter closing balance & prints Z report, report should show the combined effect of both user's transactions
- Scenario2:
- Operator ‘A’ works on station 1 from morning 8 am to 1 pm.
- After that station 1 is closed for the day.
- Now the same operator starts working again at 3 pm to 7 pm. But on station 2.
- At the day end (i.e. at 7 pm) he needs to submit the combined report for his 2 shifts (i.e. from 8 am to 1 pm AND 3 pm to 7 pm).
- Scenario3:
- The barman starts the shift on Friday.
- The back office is closed on Saturday and Sunday.
- The barman is not allowed to print Z report.
- So the back office person will take out Z report on Monday.
- The date on bill should show actual date for transactions done on Saturday and Sunday.
Solution: In order to meet the demands of the scenarios mentioned above RanceLab® FusionRetail™ 6 has made several changes to simplify the day end procedure. FusionRetail 6 now uses batch number to logically group transactions based on user activity. This document explains the Cash Drawer balancing module in detail,
- Explanation of the Batch Id concept
- The process of Cash Drawer Balancing.
Explanation of the Batch Id concept:
- The Start of Batch:
- When a user logs in, the system checks for a batch with “open” status for her and reads it in a global variable.
- If a batch with “open” status is not found, a new batch number is generated automatically when a user creates his first transaction.
- A user will always have a unique batch number for a given point of time.
- While a batch is open, its number is associated with all the transactions (Inventory/Financial).
- This number is added when a transaction is created.
- In Touch POS it’s added when transaction is finished.
- The number is added to transaction only once, it is not changed in modification.
- The End of a Batch:
- The batch closes when the user takes out a Z report.
- The Z report can be printed by the operator at POS or it can be printed by the cashier/supervisor in the back office.
