MODACC - ACCOUNTING Ó UNCTAD – SITE (V1.15) 4.32 Shift Operations The basic accounting period for the Customs office, the Daybook period, can be broken down into shifts, to allow for receipts to be handled by a number of different cashiers over the period, and for each  of  those  cashiers  to  be  separately  accountable.  All  Shift  Operations  require  the  user  to  be logged in to the server. Close Opening  the  daybook  for  the  period  opens  'Shift  1'.  Selecting  "Close"  will  close  the  shift  that  is currently open. To open the next shift, select "Undo Close" Undo Close This opens the second (and subsequent) shift for the accounting period, i.e. Shift 2, Shift 3, Shift 4. Status Displays a window to inform the user when the shift started and finished. Print/Query The 'Print/query' menu gives several options for reporting on shift operations. Shift summaries are available  in  either  a  'provisional'  or  'definitive'  form,  or  summary  by  cashier  (i.e.  the  individual cashier user name). View options for the reports are by 'type of operation' or 'means of payment'. See Shift Operations - Print/Query for more details.
