What a Z-report should show

A Z-report is not decoration at the end of the day. It is the document that explains what should be in the drawer and why.

01

Expected cash and counted cash

The report should show what the drawer should contain, what the cashier counted, and the exact short or over amount.

02

Payment types separated

Cash, card, QR, and split payments should be separated. Otherwise the bank deposit and the drawer count get mixed together.

03

Refunds and voids with names

A refund without a staff name is just a missing sale. A good report shows who did it, when, and how much.

04

Export when the accountant asks

The best daily report is still operational. Your accountant may need exports for formal accounts; that is normal.
