Cyrious Software's reporting functions are an easy, accurate, reliable way to ensure that your bank receives the correct information in a timely manner. Additionally, reporting serves as a double-check for your own internal accounting purposes.

Accessing Reports from the Main Menu

The main menu is the easiest place to access your reports. The Reports menu expands to show every kind of report you have created and store in your system. This makes reports instantly accessible when you need them most – on our way out the door for a meeting, when it's 4:59 PM and you need to close the shop, or when your Executive Accountant at Headquarters needs your state sales tax report faxed over immediately.

Below we have included a few examples of submenu reports and which reports are included with them. For a more comprehensive listing of all standard reports included with Cyrious Control (the information they display, options and fields for each report, and a sample screenshot), request a digital copy of our Control Reports Reference Guide.

Printing a Daily Close Out Report

Main Menu | Reports | Financial Reports and Closeouts| Closeouts | Close the Day

Daily close outs are typically performed before the cash drawer is deposited with the bank. For new shops, this may be once or twice a week, while more established stores typically do this daily.

The Daily Activity Report, which is usually the first report printed in the daily closeout, contains a summary of all accounting and payment transactions since the last daily close out. Among other things, this report lists the payments by payment group (cash, check, etc.) and reconciles the cash drawer prior to making any bank deposits.

Two additional reports, the Daily Payments Report and the Daily Orders Picked-Up (Sales) Report are also usually printed with the daily closeout. These reports provide more detail than the daily activity report and can be used for reconciliation that is more detailed.

The User can also specify other reports printed with each daily closeout.

Printing a Weekly Close Out Report

Although weekly close out reports are not commonplace, they do help with reconciliation should you need them.

Printing a Monthly Close Out Report

Monthly close outs are typically performed at the end of each month to close out the sales figures. Additional reports like the sales tax report, royalty report, commission report, sales breakdown by industry, sales breakdown by category, and others are often printed at this time.

The depth of analysis desired will determine which reports are printed. Additionally, many managers prefer a printout of the accounts receivable listing at least once a month.

Other Reports

Cyrious offers a report for just about every need a professional in the industry could need. However, our software also allows you to create your own reports. Our Implementation Team is happy to help you create these reports.

Effective Use

Why Close Out?

Closing out is an important part of disciplined accounting procedures. Cyrious uses daily, weekly, and monthly close outs to help simplify reporting procedures and practices.
