Ledger accounts and journal entries of POS sales
Every POS sale is saved on a receipt and booked in journal entries. Each POS product books its revenue to a ledger account selected in that product’s settings. Learn which journal entries a sale creates.
Ledger accounts of POS products
You choose the ledger account when you add or edit a POS product. To protect your financial administration, a product can't book to a balance sheet account. If you want, create a separate ledger account for POS revenue in Financial > Ledger accounts.
To change the ledger account of earlier sales, read: Receipt items and results
Journal entries of a sale
To see the journal entries of a receipt, open the receipt and click the journal entries button. You see which amounts are booked to which ledger account:
When you sell products, the total is booked to the POS suspense account, against the ledger accounts of the products.
When the guest pays, the amount moves to the suspense account of the payment method.
Good to know
Where do I see POS revenue per ledger account? In the trial balance. POS > Results shows revenue per product instead.
