Running your shop day to day

How do I open the shop on Veira each morning?

Updated June 2026

Short answer

Sign in on the terminal or your device, check the connection so eTIMS can file, and glance at yesterday's summary before the first customer. Each cashier signs in as themselves so the day's sales tie to the right person and shift. Then you are ready to ring the first sale.

More detail

A good open is short: device on, signed in, connection checked. Because selling is offline-first, you can trade even if the network is slow, but a quick check means invoices file without a backlog.

Having each cashier sign in under their own login from the start is what makes the day's reporting trustworthy, so takings, voids and discounts all trace to the right person.

Do I need internet to open?
No. Selling is offline-first, so you can open and trade on a weak connection. A quick check just keeps eTIMS filing without a backlog.
Should each cashier sign in separately?
Yes. Separate logins from the start are what make the day's sales, voids and discounts trace to the right person and shift.
