Restore end of day on Aloha 5.2

[rhdyes]

I am running aloha 5.2 on a windows xp machine.
I made a mistake and ran EOD at noon. Is there a way I can reverse this?

 

[coorsman]

did you have data for the current day that you need?


Cheers,

Yes I do. I have the data. But its for today. After that I continued using the software for the rest of the day.

 

[rhdyes]

The system had been online from 7 to 12. I made a mistakee and set the eod for 12 noon. It ran, I reset the date and continued for the rest of the day.

The EOD for today will fail if there is a dated subdirectory for today. After running reports for daypart1. Rename the dated sub 20110124 to daypart1-124 when the system does an eod tonight.

It is possible to merge the two trans log files to make one day.

Browse to daypart1-124 and rename the trans.log file to daypart1.log. Copy this log file into the newly created 20110124 "after eod has been done".

Run reports on current 20110124 - after 2nd eod.

Now browse to the 20110124 directory and paste the daypart1.log. Rename the trans.log file to daypart2.log.

Open a command prompt window and type in the following lines then press enter after each one, if quick service do a grindq instead of grind.

cd %iberdir%\20110124

copy /b daypart1.log+daypart2.log trans.log

..\bin\grind /date 20110124

exit

if no errors during grind then run reports.

I will be trying this tomorrow morning.

The EOD number did not balance out right.

 

[coorsman]

EOD will cash out open checks. Do a reprint of checks to see if you have the full day.
