For those in the retail or grocery business especially the POS side, do you create separate Cash Sale transactions for every buyer? We do, and it's a lot of transactions on a daily basis. We have over a million of transactions already. Is that the normal practice? Or do you use an aggregator that spits out one or a few Cash Sales a day?

It all depends on your data needs. Provided you don't need to track the sales on a per-customer basis and aren't tracking data on those customers (names, order history, etc,) then aggregating into one or a few cash sales per day make sense. I've worked with a few restaurants that do this, however retail and grocery have returns co consider whereas restaurants do not, so I assume you'd need to do the same with Cash Refunds as well. Basically, combining the cash sales as much as you can to a point that still allows for useful, reportable data for you would be your best bet.

Got it. Do you know any aggregator tool in the market that works well in NS? We think we're okay to aggregate the cash sales and even the refunds. We just need a receipt to refund the customer and won't necessarily link it to the original Cash Sales.
