This article explains the concept of sessions in the Qoyod Point of Sale app, the stages of managing them (open, monitor, close), and how they help organize shifts and end-of-session reports.
What are sessions
Sessions are a Point of Sale tool that lets users define the time window during which financial transactions are recorded. They help with:
- Recording sales: track every sale made during the session.
- Monitoring cash flow: accurate documentation of cash in and out.
- Organizing shifts: define the start and end of the session to avoid data overlap between staff.
Session management stages
1. Opening sessions
At the start of the shift, the user opens a new session to record all transactions.
2. Monitoring data
Sales data, cash movements, and payment methods are displayed in detail throughout the session.
3. Closing sessions
At the end of the shift, the session is closed and all data is saved.
Benefits of session management
- Track daily performance and hold each employee accountable for their sales.
- Verify the accuracy of financial operations, especially during shift handovers.
- Analyze financial data and evaluate performance based on reliable information.
End-of-session Report
Provides a comprehensive summary of all data recorded during the session (sales, cash movements, products sold, payment methods). It helps review financial operations and confirm their accuracy.
