Opening the register and the daily Z report
In Israel, every cash register has to start the day with a "register open" (the opening cash float) and end with a "Z report" — a final, immutable summary. Without this, the register isn't compliant for tax authorities.
Opening the register in the morning
- Open POS. If the register is closed, a "Open register" modal appears.
- Enter the opening cash amount — whatever's physically in the till.
- Pick your name from the cashier list (required for the report).
- Confirm — the register is open, ready for sales.
Register: closed
→
Open with ₪500
→
Register: open
Closing the register and the Z report
- At end of day: POS → menu → Close register / Z.
- The system shows total takings by payment method (cash/card/Bit).
- Count the physical cash and enter it. The difference = shortage/overage.
- Confirm → Z report is printed and saved. This cannot be reversed.
💡 Tip
You cannot issue two Z reports on the same day. If you mistakenly opened a register after a Z — keep using it without closing until tomorrow. Keep the register open between shifts if it's still the same business day.
Why this matters
The Israel Tax Authority requires every register to close a daily Z. An audit means they ask for the Z for a specific date. If it's not there — penalty. Plus, card charges only settle with the acquirer after Z.
