Daily totals will only show totals for a specified day. In the event a range is chosen with this type of report, every day within that range will print out a daily report. (I.e. If I choose Sunday –
Wednesday, I will get 4 reports with their daily totals) On the other hand, Consolidated Totals will summarize totals for a specified period. Often times a person would use this type of report to generate weekly, monthly, and yearly totals. (I.e. If I choose a date range starting on Sunday and ending on Wednesday, I will get one report with combined totals of all four days.)
Summary reports will provide you with sales information that will omit detailed headers. Total reports will privide you with the detailed headers and totals. Finally, detail reports will show you tracking, detailed headers and totals, and labor information.
Revenue centers are cost centers. Typically, when there are two different restaurants operating in the same building, there is a need for separate revenue centers.
The following reports are available by category within the Autosequences and Reports Module.
Access is given to autosequences first. You must choose the tab labeled Reports to view the following categories.
A. Sales Balance
B. Period
C. Guest Check
D. Employee
E. Labor
F. Group
G. Menu Item
H. Other
The purpose of this category is to provide you with financial reports by revenue center or system wide. Additionally, you will find a Return/Void Reason Code Report in this section.
The purpose of this category is to provide you with revenue center or system tip totals. Included in daily and period reports, this report is used when the IRS audits.
The purpose of this category is to provide you with revenue center or system tax totals. Sums of these figures for all revenue centers should equal figures on system for the same period. Tax is calculate for each menu item and added to derive the tax collected amount.
This reports sales information based on time periods for the revenue center or system wide.
Totals will appear in timed increments programmed in the system. This is not to be used to balance drawers as time periods are allowed to overlap. Instead this report can help you determine peak sales periods.
2
The purpose of this report is to report sales based on guest check activity. There are separate reports for open checks and closed checks. The open check reports will show which revenue center and employee has open checks. The closed check reports will show checks that have been closed. This can be utilized when an associate has lost a check and needs it reprinted.
These reports detail the sales by employee. Employee financials and tip information can be gathered here. The sales and tip reports are often used for IRS audits.
These reports are useful only if timekeeping is used. Labor figures based on time punches or job codes can offer tools in forecasting labor percentages.
This will report the groupings of menu items by price and quantity. Figures on these reports do not include tax. If using inclusive tax, the total of the menu item = (sales price - tax). Major and
Family group reports will give you generalized information about the menu. These can be especially helpful if comparing groups of items like bottle beer and draft beer sales.
This will report the open checks on the system for a given associate or for an entire revenue center. All menu items must be assigned to a major and family group. Subtotals are generated by groups. Additionally, figures on these reports do not include tax. If using inclusive tax, the total of the menu item = (sales price - tax).
This will report on various items, like the Kitchen Display System.

Net Sales include the sale of an item that has been rung. An open check item will post to net sales regardless if it is a closed or open check.
Service Charges include the charged tips. Once a credit card has been over tendered, the amount automatically becomes a tip, or service charge. Additionally, items like 15% gratuity are included in this figure.
Tax collected is a figure derived by menu items. Each time an item is pressed, tax applies based on the tax rate it calls. Due to rounding concerns and the way that tax is applied to the check, simply taking a “subtotal” figure like net sales and multiplying by the tax rate will not give you an exact tax figure to balance against.
Total Revenue is the total of the above mentioned. Again, this reflects the total amount of all checks that are begun and carried over.
The third section from the left contains useful check information. The first column is the number of checks. The second column is the amount of the checks.
Carried over numbers and amounts mean that the previous day had checks open when the button
“End Day” was pressed.
Outstanding is the number and amount of checks that were present as you hit the “End Day” button. They are considered outstanding checks for today, and they will also appear tomorrow as
Carried over checks.

Locate the Credit Card module within Micros Applications. It is not customary to have to visit this module often if batching is automated with End of Night Procedures. In the event researching is necessary, this is where you can start your search. Usually credit card transactions are grouped in a batch. The batch must be sent to the processor. Reports can tell us the status of the batch settlement, notifies us of credit card charges not settled, and helps balance bank statements.
M - credit card number entered manually
A - credit card authorization entered manually
S - charge already settled
O - omitted from batch settlement - not settled
The total amount greater than authorized will be noted on the system placing the difference on the next line. It is not assigned a new batch record number.
This is a status marker of the batch. Any records not settled are noted and listed under the status line along with an explanation. The report can be produced manually or automatically. Error are driver-specific.
See Reports Manual for driver information.
Omitted Flag
U - user omitted the record before transmitting
D - driver rejected the record after transmitted
Omitted Description
D - contact credit card processor if you need to know what message means
“*” lines on reports come directly from the credit card processor
The On-Line Manuals contain new information regarding troubleshooting error messages. Look for the Reports Manual for updated error messages.
See the next section for specific errors.

If the problem persists, contact your support representative.
Timeout Awaiting POLL
The driver did not receive a communications control character from the credit card processor. The control character (ENQ) tells the driver that the processor is ready to receive information. Contact your support representative
Timeout Awaiting Response
