The Sales and Receipt Report provides you with a breakdown of accounting categories sold during a specified time frame, on specified registers, within a specified store.

The report is broken into two major sections

Sales Summary: lists quantity sold, retail dollar amount sold, discount dollar amount taken at POS, net dollar amount (retail dollar amount minus discount dollar amount), cost dollar amount, profit dollar amount, and margin %.

Tax Summary:  contains various pieces of tax information, including tax-exempt information.

Receipts Summary comes at the end of the report

The Sales and Receipt Report is a great way for you to view, in black and white, what accounting categories are selling in your store, in what quantities, and how much profit is being generated.

You are in control of the parameters that determine how the report will be run and what it will report on.

You can run the report as a detailed report, in which all accounting categories sold at the POS during the specified time frame will be listed; or you can run it as a summary, in which only the total sales summary and total tax summary and receipt summary will print.

Accounting categories can be broken down within the wider POS Sales Summary Groups that you set up in the Accounting Category parameter;

POS Sales Summary Groups are meant to further segregate the printed detailed report

You can create Groups such as Books, Non-Books, Fees and Services, etc
