Aloha POS - Determining which day of business DATA folder represents

[rrgsti]

Hi there,

I'm looking to determine which business day the current information in the DATA folder represents for Aloha. E.g. if I look at the files and know if it's for current day or EOD hasn't run from previous day.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

in aloha.ini within the data folder, open it, and search for DOB

check the aloha folder and see if there is a dated sub for the prvious date. for example 20141012 is for October 12, 2014. If it exists, then end of day ran. If it doesn't then end of day may not have run and you should check the aloha.ini in data folder to see what the date of business is. You can also check the terminals, at the logon keypad screen, you will see at the bottom center of the screen, system date: and DOB: both dates should be the same and on the current date.

Just wanted to pop back in and say these tips worked a treat. I ended up using the DOB record in the aloha.ini file.

Thanks!
