Before you open your own business related to sales, you need to take care of the proper documentation. A particularly important nuance is the design of checks necessary for the tax service. How are they created? Need a typewriter or cash register. Some entrepreneurs cannot figure out in which cases the first option applies. In the article we will consider some models and all the nuances.
What is a check machine?
She is needed in order to conduct sales. In fact, checks are necessary to fix the profit. In terms of its functions and purpose, the machine does not differ from the cash register. There is only one caveat: in the legislation there are special cases in which it is prohibited for use.
Differences
You need to understand the differences between a check machine and a cash register for the proper selection of equipment. What are they?
- Unlike a check-printing device, a cash register has fiscal memory, that is, a storage in which there is all information about the proceeds.
- The machine does not have to register with the tax service and engage in the installation of a special protective unit.
- If you wish, you can not conclude an agreement related to service by the manufacturer.
As you can understand, a check machine can not be used in all areas of human life. It is also necessary to pay attention to legislation.
Who can use it?
Every entrepreneur should understand that his duty is to control his income. Moreover, you need to understand what funds will be used to pay taxes and other state fees. In some cases, it is permitted to use not a cash register, but a receipt device.
For what tax regimes can I use the described machine? Allowed for:
- patent;
- single tax on temporary income.
Only when working with such tax service systems can a check machine be used as a way of capturing company revenues. Why only with them? The fact is that only in such regimes the amount of deductions to the tax service does not depend on the number of goods or services sold.
Therefore, companies are more profitable and more rational to purchase a small and cheap device that will record the purchase of something. The presence of the machine also guarantees consumer protection in the event of the sale of low-quality products. Only if there is a check, the buyer can get the money back.
It should be recalled that only when working with one of the above two tax regimes is it allowed to have a check machine. Accordingly, we will analyze in which cases it is prohibited.
General, simplified taxation systems and a single tax on agriculture are not suitable for working with the described device. It is forbidden for the reason that it does not have fiscal memory. And it is an integral part in calculating the sales of an enterprise, which affects the amount of taxes.
What information does it give out?
In the presence of this device, the entrepreneur himself is primarily interested. Why? Firstly, it is much easier to take profits and control the hired staff during sales due to the check device. It also facilitates the inventory process.
Like a cash register, a check machine has a special Z-report function. It is thanks to her that at any time you can get a detailed report on a perfect purchase. What data does the device store?
- Date and time.
- Amount.
- Payment by cash or card.
- The total result (usually the full amount in one day).
How to choose a typewriter?
Why are printing machines in high demand among companies? They are many times cheaper than cash registers, and using them is much easier. In addition, in many functions they are able to completely replace their counterpart. The check machine is initially issued with software that prints all the necessary details necessary for all public services.
In addition to low cost, the device has a very small size, so it can be easily transported. Accordingly, waiters or couriers can use a printing machine. Such a solution will become comfortable not only for employees, but also for guests. It is necessary to pay attention to how to connect a check machine to a computer. This process is detailed in the instructions. In short, you must use a special cable.
Another advantage is the speed of receipt printing. The device copes with this task much faster than the cash register.
Popular models
Now you can stumble upon a huge selection of check machines. Among them there are those that are in great demand. Which ones? Orion has an excellent model 100 for sale, Alpha has 400, and Mercury has 130, 180. By the way, the Mercury 180 check machine (detailed and convenient instruction) is the most popular.
Important device settings
Most often, entrepreneurs buy equipment from the Mercury series. Check devices have distinguished themselves by many interesting advantages. Which ones? For example, the Mercury 115 check typewriter (because of its ease of use, an instruction manual) has the following advantages:
- reliability;
- durability (lasts about 5 years or more);
- speed of work (this series is considered the fastest);
- ergonomics (the device is easy to control with one hand);
- withstands enormous volumes of work with ease;
- beautiful design.
