End of Day Wizard

The End of Day Wizard in LS Express allows you to perform the closeout process for a specific store, drawer, and staff members. It helps reconcile the cash in each drawer and provides a summary of sales at the end of the day.

 

  1. From the Role Center, click on Periodic activities > Close Out. The Close Out wizard will open up.

  2. If your company has multiple stores, choose the store for which you want to perform the closeout. For closing out all drawers and staff members, leave the Drawer and Staff fields blank. Otherwise, select the specific drawer and/or staff to close out.

  3. For each payment method, count the exact amount according to the drawer and staff filters set in the previous step.

  4. If you have configured denominations for a payment method, you can tap the three dots to enter the amount by denominations.

    Note: The denomination (coin and note) breakdown you enter here is only kept while the closeout is still open. Once the closeout is posted, the individual denomination counts are no longer available as a viewable breakdown—only the total counted amount for each payment method remains on the posted summary.

  5. The system will calculate the expected cash amount based on sales, and any difference between the counted amount and the calculated amount will be indicated in red.

  6. The difference will be posted to the General Ledger (G/L) account configured for this purpose in the payment method settings.

  7. Verify the counted amount and ensure they are accurate. Click on Next to proceed with the closeout process.

  8. Review the information and make sure everything is correct. Click on the Finish button to complete the closeout process. The system may offer to take you to the posted summary window for further review.

    Note: Once you finish the closeout, the posted summary (Z report) is permanently locked, in the same way as other posted documents in Business Central. It cannot be reopened, changed, or deleted, and there is currently no built-in action to reverse or correct one after posting. If you find an error in a closeout after it has been posted, contact your system administrator or LS Retail support for guidance on how to proceed.
