Hello Good day
I hope everyone reads this be as optimal health.
I have doubts about using SambaPOS.
We have at our restaurant local customers who utilize the Customer account concept as they order, and once they finish their stay, they close the orders and pay.
The problem is that when I close the account and check my daily profits, it appears as Negative, and once they Pay another day, the system shows Profits more than what is on hand.
How can I optimize that and arrange profit tracking with the concept of Customer Accounts and moreover? Is it possible to separate Customer Account profits from regular profits so I can differentiate?
Your wise response on that matter is highly appreciated.
Best regards and wishes.
From sounds of it your not mentally seperating sales from payment, running accounts you need take into account brought forward and carried forward balances.
Accounts mean your payments will not be equal to sales and this is normal, sales hapen when the goods are sold and layment when paid obviously, sales and payments are seperate, your taxed on sales so you work on sales and payments are reconsiled against that accojntng for balances on account.
Can you elborate more pleasei feel i am lost in your comment. If you do not mind. 
Sounds like your reconsiling money against sales directly rsther than money against payments.
When you run accounts you need to keep a debtors balance which the difference in each day will reflect on the difference of payments and sales.
Ie

Till will have 100 money but report 150 sales ledger balance will be 50 debt

25 account sales
Till will have 200 money and show 225 sales with ledger balance changing from 50 brought forward to 75 carried forward account for 25 shortfall in cash tk sales
Wednesday

50 account sales
25 account payment
Till will have 200 sales with 175 money bf was 75 bf will be 100cf
You will need to ahow account payments on your work period report to do this also or have 2nd report for show as default report reports ticket details and an account payment isnt a ticket based transaction.
