The Z report, also known as the End of the Day report, plays a vital role in Norwegian fiscalization. It must be the final transaction of the day and is required to be produced daily without exception. This report serves as a comprehensive summary of all registrations made within the cash register system during the day.
The Z report encompasses essential elements, such as transaction details, financial summaries, and relevant information for auditing purposes. Additionally, the Z report must have a consecutive numbering system and be clearly labeled as a Z report to distinguish it from other transaction records. This measure helps maintain an organized and transparent record-keeping system.
To ensure the accuracy and integrity of fiscal data, the Z report must not include any registrations that were already included in a previous Z report. This requirement prevents duplication or omission of transactions and guarantees that each report provides a comprehensive overview of the daily sales activities.
Importantly, the Z report must be the final transaction of the day, ensuring that it captures the entirety of daily operations accurately. This practice helps auditors assess the financial health of businesses and detect any irregularities or discrepancies in sales and revenue.
Moreover, Norwegian fiscalization regulations mandate the availability of printing capabilities at the point of sale. This provision allows businesses to generate reports and receipts promptly, ensuring transparency and facilitating easy access to financial records when necessary.
The X report has the same elements as the Z report, but it is not mandatory to produce an X report unless the auditor asks for one in case of an audit of the store.
