Managers can now view accounting data in two different ways (detailed below):


1. Accrual basis accounting
- Revenue is recorded when it is earned. This report is made up entirely of transactions that take place on a single business day. Unpaid tabs (outstanding balances) are recorded in the Accounts Receivable category while payments made against outstanding balances are recorded in the Funds Received category.


2. Deposit view- Payouts are recorded under the deposit view. This report is made up of entire payouts for any given location.
