The second group of totals prints a different breakdown of sales totals:

Cash/Chk
This is the total of all the cash and check amounts processed through POS Entry.

Credit Card
This is the total amount of all the credit card transactions. This total should balance to the daily store reconciliation.

Finance Amt
This is the total amount of all sales that were financed by an outside finance company. This total should balance to the daily store reconciliation.

Trade In / Inv
This is the total amount of all trade ins. In the case of an RS transaction type, sales are not affected; but this field is affected.

Open A/R
This is the total of all Open Accounts Receivable activity that flows to Open Accounts Receivable. Included in this field are all ML transaction types and any credit memos that were used. (DD and SO Transaction Types charged to an Open AR account using terms of “COD” or “BAL”, are not included in this field. These “charge amounts” are not posted to Open Accounts Receivable until the items are delivered to the customer.) These are revolving or 30 day types of charges.

Inst A/R
This line includes all amounts entered that affect Installment Accounts Receivable.

Revl A/R
This line includes all amounts entered that affect Revolving Accounts Receivable.

Finance Chg
This line includes all amounts charged to a finance company.

Taxable Sales
This is the total of all taxable sales. This total is calculated using the individual detail lines from POS Entry. If ranges are set up in Department G.M./Taxable, the system recognizes the individual lines by department and their status of taxable or nontaxable. Using this information, the system calculates the tax accordingly.

Taxable Sales Ret
This is the total of all returned items.

Net Non Tax Sal
This is the total of all Non-Taxable Sales. It does not include non-taxable returns.

Nonsale Amount
This is the total of all non-sale Items. A Non-Sale Product Type begins with ‘@’ and ends with a ‘%’ and will not update into Sales Analysis or to the Inventory Sales account. These Product Types are normally used to account for fees collected. For example: license fees (@L%), tag fees (@T%), doc fees (@D%), etc.

Office Refund
This line is the total of all office refunds issued as a result of a negative TW sale (TW merchandise return), a Canceled Order (CO) or a Shipped Delayed Delivery (DZ) with a return of merchandise.

Tax
This is the total sales tax calculated and accepted during POS Entry, Quick Ship (02-08-03), or Order Check-In (02-08-15).

Freight
This is the total amount of the freight charges entered during POS Entry, Quick Ship or Order Check-In.

The last grouping of totals is Summary Total. This is the summary recap of all the above totals. In addition, a Credit Card Report and a Check Reconciliation list is printed if there are credit card or check amounts entered for the branch/day.

Credit Card Report
This report prints the last four digits of the credit card number and the amount that was tendered in POS Entry. Each credit card category will print the individual transaction card numbers and amounts in three columns across. At the end of each category, a total amount will be printed for the credit card category that has been previously set up in Credit Card Maintenance (02-18-10). If the credit card category is not set up, an ‘Other’ category will print and will include all credit card numbers and amounts not included in any other category. This report only prints if there is a credit card amount on a transaction for the branch/day.

Check Reconciliation
This report prints the check number and the amount tendered on individual transactions (in 3 columns across), followed by a check total of all checks printed on the reconciliation. This report only prints if there is a check amount on a transaction for the branch/day.
