If you use MYOB accounting software, like AccountRight, you can export your transaction data from RetailBasics. This includes your sales, surcharges, tax collected and liabilities accrued by lay-bys. The information is exported in a format which can be imported into your accounting software, eliminating the need to manually enter the data.
Foreign currency payments
Any payments made in a foreign currency will be exported as local currency amounts. The local currency amount will be calculated using the same exchange rate used in the original transaction.
For complete instructions on setting up and performing the accounting export, see the RetailBasics user guide.
