This article will explain how to create and manage your Expenses from the Bottle POS and the Admin. Expenses allow you to create unique payouts to keep track of various business operations such as cash drops or repairs.

Image displaying the Accounting tab and the Expense subtab in the Bottle POS Admin main menu.

 

To get started, login to the Admin app. You can get to the Expense section of the Admin by clicking on Accounting, and then Expense. The Expense section is where you can create new expenses and manage existing ones.

Image displaying the Expense window of the Bottle POS Admin, highlighting the Manage Expense Types button. 

There are three main areas you will want to work with for your Expenses: you'll want to define your Expense Types, set up Vendors as they relate to expenses, and you can create Categories for your expenses if you like. The Manage Expense Types, Manage Vendor, and Manage Category buttons in the upper right will let you work in those areas.

  • You can use Expense Types to organize your expenses by major areas. This is a higher 'level' of organization than you'll use with Expense Categories and might include things like Operations, Inventory (together with Vendors, below), and Office. Click on the Manage Expense Types button and in the window that opens, you can click the Add button to create new ones, or click the Pencil icon to edit existing ones. If needed, you can click the Trashcan icon to delete any expense types you no longer need.

Image displaying the Manage Expense Types window of the Bottle POS Admin.

  • Vendors are optional and you can add one to an expense if there is a specific vendor associated with the payout. You won't need to use this for your normal inventory suppliers: this area would be for small payouts to local vendors you just pay on the spot. Click the Manage Vendor button to work with your Vendors, the Manage Vendor window will open for you. You can create new ones with the Add button, edit vendors in your list with the Pencil icon, or delete them if needed with the Trashcan icon. An example of a Vendor might be a Boy Scout troop fundraiser selling candy bars you purchase and resell in your store.

Image displaying the Manage Vendor window of the Bottle POS Admin.

  • Categories are an optional level you can use to further organize your expenses. You can use these however you like, but they are more specific than your Expense Types and might include things like petty cash used for an Employee Party, purchases of Supplies, etc. Click the Manage Category button to open the Manage Category window. You can click the Add button to add new Expense Categories, click the Pencil icon to edit a saved category, or click the Trashcan icon to delete a category. You'll be asked to confirm deletion.

Image displaying the Manage Category window of the Bottle POS Admin.

 

Adding Expenses

Once you have set up your expense types, vendors, and categories, click the Add button on the top right of the screen to create a new Expense from the Admin. The Add Expense window will open.

Image displaying the Add Expense window of the Bottle POS Admin app.

  1. Expense Date  Enter the date of the expense.

  7. Invoice  An optional field where you can enter an invoice number.
  8. Memo  An optional field where you can enter notes.

Your Admin Dashboard is your hub for keeping your finger on the pulse of your business. Take a look at how it breaks out sales and inventory data for you.

Image showing the Bottle POS Admin main menu with the Dashboard highlighted.

Whenever you log into your Admin, your Dashboard page will load for you so you can see what's going on at a glance with your store. From anywhere in the Admin you can get back to your Dashboard with the link in the upper left.

 

Using Your Admin Dashboard

Your Dashboard offers a wealth of instant information in an attractively laid-out page. Here is what each area has to offer:

Image showing Dashboard page of the Bottle POS Admin with the key features highlighted.

  1. Today's Takings – This area displays the following data across all of your stores for you:
    • The total number of Sales. It also shows the total dollar amount of your sales.
    • The total number of Refunds. It also shows you the total dollar amount of your refunds.
    • The total number of Voids. It also shows you the total dollar amount of your voided transactions.
    • The total dollar amount of Net Sales. These are your sales totals after Refunds and Voids have been removed.
    • The total Cost you paid for sold items.
    • The total dollar amount of your Profits.
  1. Top Rank ItemsThis area allows you to filter by the four different Ranks (A, B, C, and D) using the drop-list in the upper right and see which items in each Rank are your top sellers. In the example above, we see Rank D items, and we're early in the day so there's only one. Below we see Rank A items. Rank A is the top 20% of your sales, Rank B is the middle 60% of your sales, Rank C inventory falls into the bottom 20% of your sales, and Rank D inventory has no sales history. The table shows you the item Name, the Quantity sold, and the total dollar Value of the sold items. 

    Image showing Top Rank Items area of the Dashboard page of the Bottle POS Admin with the Rank selector highlighted.

  2. Sales Graph – By default you'll see a line graph of the Last 7 Days of your sales, and you can change the time range with the drop-list in the upper right. The Sales Graph shows the total dollar value of your Sales transactions, your Net Sales, the Cost of all your items, the dollar amount of your Refunds, and your Profit.
  3. Stats  The Bottle POS keeps constant track of your inventory and sales performance, and the Stats area offers you the following key data points:
    • Inventory Grade This is calculated based on the spread of Ranked items across your inventory. If you have a higher balance of the higher ranks, your inventory will be graded higher. The higher your percentage score in this area, the better your inventory is performing.
    • Monthly Projected Sales Based on your sales history, this is the system's prediction on total sales for the month.
    • Average Margin This is the average profit margin on items you have sold.
    • Average Ticket Amount This is the average individual transaction Total across all of your sales transactions for the period.
    • Average Customers This is the average of the number of daily customers per store.
    • Average RatingThis is the average number of stars given to your store from the customer-facing display, if you have that setting active.
  1. Sale Stats – This pie chart breaks down your Total Sales across all item Ranks in the default view for your inventory, and also shows any unranked inventory. By default we see the Last 7 Days, but you can use the drop-list in the upper right to adjust the date range. With all charts in this area you can hover over a section or click on it to see details. You can also adjust the Mode of the chart to any of the following:

    Image showing the Sale Stats area of the Dashboard page of the Bottle POS Admin with the mode selection highlighted.

    • Payments  This will break down sales dollars for the period by Tender type.
    • Devices  This will show each Device / Register that had sales during the period and how much for each.
    • Locations  For the current store, this will show sales by Locations within the store.
    • Category This will break out dollar totals by the Categories you've created.
    • Vendor  You will see sales totals for each of your Suppliers (vendors) for the period.
    • Rank  This chart will show you sales by item Rank, including any items you haven't ranked yet. Again, Rank A is the top 20% of your sales, Rank B is the middle 60% of your sales, Rank C inventory falls into the bottom 20% of your sales, and Rank D inventory has no sales history.
  1. Inventory Stats – As with the Sale Stats and the Sales Graph, with all charts in this area you can hover over a section or click on it to see details. This chart starts with the inventory status at the current time, but you can click the Date area to see historical inventory quantities and values for previous dates. This area shows you your total number of items (Bottles), their total dollar Value, and breaks down your inventory in the following ways:

    Image showing the Inventory Stats area of the Dashboard page of the Bottle POS Admin with the mode selection highlighted.

    • Category  See your inventory quantities for your Categories.
    • Vendor  See the quantities and value of your inventory broken down by Suppliers.
    • Rank  See how many unranked items you have and the quantities for the four Ranks for your inventory.
