How do I closeout a storefront using the closeout guide?

Once a storefront has ended, you’ll want to review the inventory and cash returned from the storefront. The quick storefront closeout will guide you through each of these steps. Note: If you want to use the Close out Storefront button, do NOT return your inventory or record cash collected. You'll be doing those things during the close out process. 

INVENTORY

1. Storefronts that are available to closeout will display at the top of the Storefront Management page. Storefronts can be closed for up to 48 hours after the end of the last shift. Click the button 'Close Out Storefront'. 
2. You’ll be able to review a summary of the sales for each shift. Once you’ve looked at the summary, click Next to update the inventory returned from the storefront. 
3. If you transferred the inventory to the storefront in Trail’s End, we’ll show the anticipated inventory that should return from the storefront based on what was sold.
4. Manually count the inventory for each product. If the amount is different from the anticipated amount enter the amount in the Actual column. You can select a reason for the difference for your records. If you don't know the reason, it is most likely a transaction error. 
5. Once you’ve confirmed the inventory being returned from the storefront and entered any amounts that are different, click the Save button. This will return the inventory to your unit’s inventory and save any adjustments. Updating inventory will help you track the current inventory your unit has. 

Note: these adjustments affect only your inventory, not your sales or your invoice due to Council. 

CASH

Once you’ve completed inventory, you’ll be able to see the amount of cash expected to return from the storefront. You can choose to convert some or all of this cash to credit. When you use Cash to Credit, the amount converted will get an additional .25 rewards points that will be split across the Scouts that worked that storefront.

1. If you would like to skip the Cash to Credit option, you can toggle off the option and finish your storefront closeout. If you skip Cash to Credit, be sure to go to Manage Cash to record the cash collected. You can do this before or after going through the guide, but the storefront will not show closed out if there is cash due from the storefront. 
2. Once you’ve selected the amount to convert and entered your credit card information, click Pay Now. Your card will be charged for the amount entered.
3. You’ll see a confirmation screen that your payment processed. You’ll also receive an email receipt and can take the cash that you have converted. Click the Complete Storefront Closeout to close the storefront.

NOTES

• Only storefronts that have either inventory transferred to them or cash due to be collected can be closed out.
• When viewing Past Storefronts, Stores that have been closed out will appear at the bottom of the list. Get to them quickly by filtering by date. 
• TIP: If you have closed out and for some reason you want to go back and do it again (for example, you decided to use Cash to Credit), you can move inventory back to the storefront and that will re-open the closeout guide.
