How to set up Daily Target

In this guide: Turn monthly operating costs and desired profit into a practical sales target for each business day.

Steps

1. Open Settings.
2. Select Daily Target & Light Setup.
3. Add each recurring monthly operating expense, such as rent, payroll, utilities, insurance, and subscriptions.
4. Enter the Desired monthly profit.
5. Choose the number of Business days per month that the location is normally open.
6. Review the calculated Monthly Expenses, Monthly Target, and Daily Sales Target.
7. Choose Compact navigation view or Full register view.
8. Select Save.
9. Return to the main screen and verify that Daily Target appears as expected.

How the target is calculated

(Monthly expenses + desired monthly profit) ÷ business days = daily sales target

Example: $20,000 in expenses plus $5,000 desired profit, divided by 25 business days, creates a $1,000 daily target.

Tip

Use realistic monthly amounts and review them whenever rent, payroll, subscriptions, operating days, or profit expectations change.
