If the End of Day dialog box shows there are open tables, you may click Go Fix to see what tables are open and the servers they belong to. Any tables that are open must be closed from the front of the house. Before you go up front to close the open tables you may HAVE TO cancel out of the End Of Day process in Manager Console, depending on version. If the End of Day dialog box shows there are open servers, you may click “Go Fix” to see what servers are open. An “Open Employee” is an employee with sales activity for the day that has not run a checkout since the sales activity.

In the next step you have the opportunity to change the date that you will be closing out. If the date in the dialog box is correct, go ahead and click the POST button. If the date is incorrect click Go Fix to correct the date. The current calendar date will have a red circle around it. If it is after midnight when you are posting end of day, you will need the previous day to be highlighted in blue. You are posting on the “date of business” (whatever the date was when you opened and started the shift).
The final step is to click the POST button. You will see several messages and blue progress bars at the top right of the screen indicating what onePOS is doing. The end result is that after you post end of day, that day of business is saved to a JOURNAL file (a permanent record of all the transactions of the day), and the system is reset so you are ready to begin a new day of business.

**This process can take up to 3 minutes after clicking POST**
