Hi

I am new new to this site and figured maybe i can ask here my question and see if somebody knows what i am talking about. (if my grammar or question i am asking is stupid, take it easy on me :)

I need help with setting up Aloha POS system with a auto Sequence some how, so when night end is done and restaurant is close i can grab Daily sales journal Emailed to me daily. If that is not possible maybe i can hit a button to generate my reports into a folder daily, so i can copy paste them through a portal. IS this even possible with ALOHA? one of these two methods! Does anybody have any thoughts or idea! so i dont have to outsource through another Aloha Base website to create this crystal report and have the software email it to me.
 
There are many post about doing this. I use a combination of Stunnel and Blat for sending the email and use Aloha eod process to generate report and then call on Blat to send. The process is straight forward. Best to use a gmail account as the sending account. as its easiest to setup.

Here are the instructions for setting up aloha to generate the report

here are some links to help

I add this to winhook or what ever is set as eod file
c:\bootdrv\aloha\BIN\RPT.EXE /DATE %1 /XC /LOAD EOD.sls.set "EOD.SLS.SET" ia the name of the report I want to run. Do not add over/short to settings as it will not work.
