The Sales Point Closings page in bessa Manager provides an overview of all completed sales point closings across your sales points. Here you can filter closings by time period, company, location, and sales point, download them as PDF, print them, and – with an active FinanzOnline connection – perform receipt verification directly.
Cash Sales Point Closing vs. Terminal Closing: The print menu offers two options:
-
Sales Point Closing: Covers the closing of the main sales point including all assigned sub-terminals. All revenue from the main sales point and its sub-terminals is settled together.
-
Terminal Closing: Refers to the closing of the card payment terminal connected to the sales point. bessa Kassa automatically performs the terminal closing together with the sales point closing – including all card terminals connected to sub-terminals of the main sales point.
Tip: For information on how to perform a sales point closing directly at the terminal, see the article Sales Point Closing. bessa Kassa automatically triggers the terminal closing of all connected card terminals when performing a sales point closing.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the difference between a sales point closing and a terminal closing?
The sales point closing closes the entire main sales point including all assigned sub-terminals. All revenue is summarized together. The terminal closing refers to the closing of the card payment terminal. bessa Kassa automatically triggers the terminal closing together with the sales point closing.
Why does my sales point closing have the status "open" (Ended at = "-")?
An open sales point closing means that the relevant sales point is currently still open and no closing has been performed yet. Once the closing is performed at the terminal, the date, time, and user will appear in the "Ended at" column.
Why is the verify button missing for my Web Kassa?
Receipt verification via FinanzOnline is only available for regular sales points. Only the print function is available for Web Kassa.
What does the green checkmark on the verify button mean?
The green checkmark indicates that the receipt verification via FinanzOnline was successful. Upon successful verification, all previous sales point closings are automatically marked as verified as well.
Can I edit a sales point closing after the fact?
No. A completed sales point closing cannot be modified retroactively. This complies with the requirements of the Austrian Cash Sales Point Security Ordinance (RKSV) and ensures tamper protection.
Can the sales point closing be performed automatically?
Yes. In bessa Manager, navigate to Location Management > Sales Points > [Select sales point] > Tab "Sales Point Closing" to configure an automatic closing. You can set the business day start/end, closing interval (daily, weekly, monthly), and automatic email delivery of the report. For details, see the article Configure Sales Point Closing.
What are the open orders at the end of the sales point closing report?
Open orders are orders that had not been paid at the time of the sales point closing (e.g., still-occupied tables in a restaurant). They are displayed for informational purposes but are not included in the revenue of the current sales point closing.
