Do we have to ZZ out each register at the end of the day? Or is there a way to ZZ all registers from a single register?
ZZing each Register?

Correct me if I'm wrong but I am under the impression that a ZZ is used to track over a longer period of time and that a Z is for a daily aspect of clearing out the register.
Each machine has to be done.
I was in the understanding that the Z report was used after a shift and the ZZ at the end of the day (after several shifts). I thought you would use the reports if you wanted different time frames.
Anybody?
I think typical use is Z at the end of Day and ZZ at end of Month. But you can do whatever you like.
root ha the answer, "You can do whatever you like."
We have a shop where any cashier can use any till at any time of the day, so we don't have "Shifts". We Z the till at the end of the day, and ZZ a the end of the week.
I can understand though that if your business has a cashier who sits at the till, you Z after each shift, and ZZ at the end of the day.

I don't use ZZ at all. Have no need for it. But every once in a while I'll turn off the printer and ZZ just to clear it all out. Craig
Sorry, but what (exactly) are you clearing out?
Every Z is stored(not sure where)until you ZZ. So if you never do it and someone mistakingly clicks on it you would waste a bunch of paper. Once you do a ZZ they are gone. I'm not really sure if they take up database space or not, just figured a couple of minutes every once in a while to get rid of them is good practice. I may be wrong about them being stored, but I do know once you ZZ the old Z's are gone. Craig
