Question

In POS applications, what are X, Y and Z reports?

Answer 1

A Z report is a typical end-of-day report containing all balances of sold items per category and the total amount that should be in the drawer. Iirc an X is a temporary report which can be rerun. The Z is definite. After the Z the day has ended, and all further bookings are stored on the next day.

Answer 2

I'm not really sure how this classes as programming related, but in systems I've used previously:

• X Report - current summary, resets nothing
• Y Report - current summary, resets "shift" totals
• Z Report - current summary, resets period/day totals
