RetailBasics' intuitive end-of-day processing screen captures every aspect of your trading day at each of your retail outlets in a single form. Easy!
You can configure any number of standalone cash registers at each of your retail outlets, and RetailBasics' intuitive Trading Day form design makes transposing your end-of-day figures for each outlet as easy as you can imagine. And you can delegate responsibility to store managers to ease the burden even more.
EFTPOS takings through your EFT payment providers are captured separately, and any fees and charges levied by your payment processors are accounted for as well.
Pre-populate expected hours worked for each staff member at each outlet based on customisable rosters, automatically calculate gross and net daily earnings then update pay period totals, year-to-date earnings, and leave accruals based on actual hours worked. Ad-hoc variations to rosters are no problem; add fill-in staff, swap outlets and record unplanned absences, all the while adjusting balances to suit.
Cash wage payments can be difficult to account for, but they are a fact of life for many retail businesses. RetailBasics takes care of all aspects of cash wage payments, adjusting your net daily takings and calculating tax to withhold according to ATO logic. Wages owed at the end of each pay period take cash payments made beforehand into account when finalising pay periods.
If you use cash takings to make payments to suppliers or to buy consumables and the like, or you use cash to fund personal expenses, you can record these on the daily takings form and have the respective amounts taken into account when calculating gross and net earnings. Expenditure entries will also be created in your accounts to match.

Get StartedThe retail business management system you choose must be able to handle multiple rates of pay for your staff, reflecting casual staff loadings, overtime rates, and penalty rates for weekends and public holidays. RetailBasics lets you define up to four different hourly rates for each of your employees, which you can assign to their rostered hours or apply when submitting trading day data.
Certainly! RetailBasics accurately calculates and withholds taxes, and keeps track of accrued superannuation owing so that you can report the correct super payments to your employees' various super funds, or your super payment service. And when it's time to reconcile super and tax paid, RetailBasics will recognise both and create the necessary accounting records automatically.
Absolutely! When you are ready to do a pay run at the end of each pay period, RetailBasics will generate the appropriate pay period summary for each of your employees, detailing total earnings, hours worked at each hourly rate, leave taken of all types, tax withheld and superannuation contributions to be made on their behalf. All of this will be wrapped up into an easy-to-understand pay summary PDF and emailed to each employee automatically.
Where most retail management systems, accounting software solutions and even dedicated payroll systems will expect you to backfill hours worked at various rates and absences recorded at the end of each pay period, RetailBasics is capturing this data every day in the normal course of running your business. Every time you create a trading day record at one of your retail outlets in RetailBasics, rostered hours for each employee are added automatically. You can choose to accept these, or alter them to reflect actual hours worked if needed.
RetailBasics is armed with all relevant Federal and State leave obligations and accrual rules, meaning you can be sure that all employee entitlements to various types of leave are taken into account when calculating accrued leave and balances. The payslips generated at the end of each pay period reflect leave accrued to date for the current financial year, leave used to date for the year and any take for the period, and balances available for each leave type. And you'll be able to see all of this detail in the payroll reports, which can be filtered by employee, leave type, date period, or any combination of other criteria as well.
