Taking a Z report (end of day)

A Z report is your end-of-day total. It prints the day’s takings and then resets the counters to zero ready for the next day — so take it once, at closing time. In each picture the glowing ring and the moving pointer show what to press.

A Z report resets the day — do it once, at close

Taking a Z zeroes the running totals, so only take it when you’ve finished trading for the day. If you just want to peek at the takings during the day without resetting, take an X report from the same dropdown instead — that’s read-only.

Open Report

From the till’s home screen (press Home Mode from the sale screen if you’re not there), press the purple Report tile.

Till home screen with the Report tile — Home screen — press **Report** (bottom row, middle).

Check the Z report, then press Z Report

The Z Report is shown on screen — the day’s net and gross sales, card and cash in the drawer, voids, discounts and the cash breakdown. Have a look, then press the Z Report button at the bottom to take it. (The dropdown at the top lets you switch between the Z report and a read-only X report.)

Pulsar Reports page showing the Z report and the Z Report button — Read the totals, then press the **Z Report** button (bottom-left).

Confirm with YES

The till asks “Do you want to reset Z-Report?” — press YES to take the Z. It prints the report and resets the day’s totals. Press NO if you changed your mind.

Confirmation: Do you want to reset Z-Report, YES or NO — Press **YES** to finalise the day. Press NO to cancel without resetting.

Go back to Sales and sign off

Once the Z has printed, return to Sales. Then press Functions (bottom of the keypad) and Sign On/Off to sign yourself out — leaving the till signed off and ready for the next person to sign on in the morning.

Sale screen with the Functions panel open showing Sign On/Off — On the sale screen press **Functions** (1), then **Sign On/Off** (2) to sign out.

If something stops the Z

Open sales: if any baskets are still open, the till asks you to finish or cancel them first — a Z can’t run with unresolved sales. Card machine: if the till can’t reach the pinpad it warns you and offers Retry or Continue Anyway — retry once the pinpad is back, or continue if you’re sure the card side is settled.

The Z prints to the receipt printer (and, if set up, emails a copy and backs up automatically).
