How till sales appear in MAJA Books

Quick answerEach POS sale arrives in MAJA Books → MAJA POS → Live sales as soon as the till sends it; stock leaves at that moment, a sale on account becomes an invoice, and the money, sales, VAT and cost post as one journal per shift when the shift is closed — see it under Shifts & Z reports.

Steps

  1. Open MAJA Books, click MAJA POS in the left menu, then Live sales.

  3. Click a row to open the receipt: its lines with VAT and cost, the payments, and links to the invoice or the digital receipt.
  4. Click Shifts & Z reports to see each shift: float, sales, expected and counted cash, the difference, the Z number and the journal.
  5. Click a shift, then the journal number, to open the journal entry.

What MAJA does for you

  • When a sale reaches the server, the stock leaves (first in, first out) and a refund puts it back at the cost it left.
  • A sale On account becomes a customer invoice in MAJA Books, due on the customer's terms.
  • At the Z, one journal posts the shift: cash in tills, card clearing, store credit, gift cards and points used, sales by each item's own sales account, discounts, output VAT, cash rounding, cost of goods, drawer pay-ins, pay-outs and drops, and any cash short or over.
  • The journal is dated on the business day, or in the first open month when that month is closed or inside a filed VAT return.
  • Training sales never reach the books.

Good to know

  • The figures at the top show net sales today, tills seen in the last 5 minutes, shifts open now, and "Sales still on a till, not yet here".
  • A shift with nothing to post closes without a journal.
  • Use the CSV buttons to export receipts or shifts.
