POS report
How to read the Mosce ERP point-of-sale report: analysis by register session, by cash register and by cashier.
The POS report lets you audit the performance of sales made from the point of sale. You can break it down by register session, by cash register or by cashier to reconcile closings, compare performance across branches and detect inconsistencies.
Reading time: ~5 min
When to use this
- You are doing the daily or weekly register close and need to reconcile the totals.
- You want to compare the performance of two or more cash registers in the same period.
- You need to audit the sales of a specific cashier.
- You see a difference between the bank total and the general sales report and suspect it comes from the POS.
Before you start
- You need the
reports:readpermission and the POS module active in your plan. - The POS report only includes sales made from an active register session. Invoices issued outside the POS (from the general sales module) do not appear here.
- Downloading as CSV or PDF consumes one export from your monthly quota. See Usage limits.
The three dimensions of the POS report
By session
Shows one row for each register session opened in the selected period. A session starts when the cashier opens the register (records the opening cash) and ends when it is closed.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Opening date and time | When the session started |
| Closing date and time | When it was closed (empty if the session is still open) |
| Cash register | Name of the register where the session took place |
| Cashier | User who opened the session |
| Total sales | Sum of all POS orders in the session |
| Number of orders | Number of transactions processed |
| Opening cash | Amount the register was opened with |
| Cash declared at close | Amount the cashier declared when closing |
By cash register
Shows one row per cash register with the total sales and the number of orders accumulated in the period. Useful for comparing performance across branches or points of sale when you have multiple registers.
By cashier
Shows one row per user who operated as a cashier in the period. Useful for evaluating individual performance, detecting systematic differences and assigning responsibility in case of a shortfall.
Which orders are included
The POS report only includes orders created from an active POS register session. The following are excluded:
- Invoices issued from Sales → Invoices without an associated register session.
- Quotes, orders or draft documents.
- Cancelled orders.
This distinction is important: if an employee issues an invoice directly from the sales module during a register session, that invoice appears in the general sales report but not in the POS report.
Common errors
| Symptom | Likely cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| A session does not appear in the report | The session fell outside the selected date range | Widen the date range |
| A session total does not match the register close | There are cancelled orders that were recorded after the close | Review the session detail to see whether there are cancellations |
| A register does not appear in the by-register report | It had no sessions opened in the period | Verify that the register is active and that sessions were opened |
| The POS report total does not match the general sales report | The sales report includes non-POS invoices; the POS report only includes session ones | Both reports are complementary, not identical |
Frequently asked questions
Can I see the detail of each order within a session?
The POS report shows session totals. To see the detail of the individual orders in a session, go to POS → Sessions and open the specific session.
Does the POS report include online sales or sales from other channels?
No. It only includes sales processed from the point-of-sale interface with an open register session.
Can I filter the POS report by branch?
Yes. The cash register selector in the report header filters by a specific register. If you have multiple registers in the same branch, select them all to see the branch total.
Are tips or additional charges included in the total?
If they are configured as part of the POS order, yes - the total sales include all the concepts of the order, including tips and taxes.
