I work at a tattoo shop and my boss has been trying to figure out a way to break down what each employee has made in cash and card sales at the end of the week so that he can more effectively calculate payroll. So my question for you is does QuickBooks have some way to separate individual employee’s cash and card sale’s totals for each week. Thank you for your help

Hello there, @Trilogy333. I can help you manage your cash and credit card sales.

  1. Click on + New.
  2. Choose Sales receipt
  3. Select the customer from the Customer dropdown.
  4. Type in the sales info, as well as the payment method.
  5. Enter line items for the products and services you sold.
  6. Then, hit Save and send to email the receipt.
     

On the other hand, here's how to create a receive payment on your invoice for the customers.
