Settle karo bina calculator — change register khud batata hai.

The moment of payment is where registers get tested: a queue, a ₹2000 note, a guest who wants to pay half now. EasyKOT's settle sheet answers all of it with one field — type what the guest handed over, and the register tells the cashier exactly what to return, or makes a short payment an honest decision, or holds a balance with a name on it. Offline, every time.

The walkthrough

Amount typo, tender chuno, ho gaya — teen steps.

1

Press Settle — the exact amount is already typed

The settle sheet opens with 'Amount received' prefilled to the balance due, so the common case — guest pays exactly — is one glance and one confirm. The field selects itself the moment you touch it, so typing a different amount replaces it; no backspacing.

2

Type what the guest actually handed over

This is where the register earns its keep. Guest gives ₹500 on a ₹430.50 bill? Type 500 and a green panel answers instantly: 'Return ₹69.50 to customer'. No calculator, no mental arithmetic at 9 pm, no arguing over change. The books stay honest too — the register records the sale at ₹430.50, with the tender and change noted on the record, so an overpay never inflates your day's takings.

Step 2 — type what was handed over; the change to return is on screen before the drawer opens.

Paid less? The register makes the gap a decision — discount or loss — never a mystery.

Pick the tender and confirm

UPI, Cash or Card — one tap. UPI means you verified the payment on your own phone's app; Card means the guest paid on your card machine. The confirm key spells out what will happen — 'Settle ₹436.50 · print bill' — and on confirm the receipt queues and the cash drawer kicks open. Paid less than due? The register refuses to look away: either record the gap as a Discount or a Loss, or flip on Part pay and take the rest later.

The settle sheet in Part pay mode: 'Balance ₹770.50 unpaid — customer details required' with name and phone fields, and a confirm key reading 'Take ₹500 · balance due ₹770.50'

Step 3 — part pay takes what's offered, keeps the check open, and puts a name on the balance.

The design

Four endings, and every one lands on the books right.

  • Exact — the prefilled amount, one confirm. Receipt queues, drawer kicks, table frees up.
  • Over — the green panel names the change to return. The sale books at the bill amount; the note handed over and the change given ride the payment record. Your day's takings are never inflated by big notes.
  • Short — a forced choice, Discount or Loss, typed into the record. The drawer can be short; the story about it cannot be missing.
  • Part pay — takes what's offered, keeps the check open with the balance and a customer name and phone against it. No receipt and no drawer until the check truly closes — and the balance can be paid by a different tender.

And if the printer is dead at the settle, the sale still stands — the ledger writes first, the paper queues and retries. The printer troubleshooting guide covers getting it back.

Payment questions

Straight answers.

Guest ne ₹2000 ka note diya, bill ₹1,436.50 ka — ab?
Type 2000 and confirm. The green panel reads 'Return ₹563.50 to customer' before the drawer even opens — the cashier counts notes against a number on screen instead of doing subtraction with a queue watching. The sale is booked at ₹1,436.50; the ₹2000 tendered and ₹563.50 change are noted on the payment record, not added to your takings.
What if the guest pays less than the bill?
The register makes you say why, on the spot. Type the short amount and an amber panel asks: record the gap as a Discount (you chose to let it go) or a Loss (it went missing). One of the two must be picked before the settle goes through — a short drawer with no explanation is the thing this screen exists to prevent.
Can a table pay half now and half later?
Yes — flip on Part pay, type what they gave, and the register takes it against the check and keeps the check open with the balance showing. It asks for the customer's name and phone so the balance has a face. Each part payment records its own tender — ₹500 by UPI now, the rest in cash later is perfectly normal — and the final settle closes the check, prints the bill and kicks the drawer.
How does UPI work — does the register verify the payment?
Honestly: you verify, it records. The guest pays your UPI QR or number, you see the credit in your own UPI app, then tap UPI on the settle sheet. There is no payment gateway in between — which also means no gateway commission on any UPI sale, and nothing that breaks when the gateway has a bad day.
Do you support card machines?
The register records card payments — the guest pays on whatever card terminal your bank gave you, and you tap Card as the tender. There is no integrated card terminal in v1, and card numbers never touch EasyKOT at all.
What about the odd paise — does it round?
Type the round figure and the register understands. On a ₹436.50 bill, a guest handing ₹436 is fifty paise short — type 436 and it books a round-off line, not a fake discount. The bill shows the round-off explicitly, so the total on paper always matches the cash that changed hands.
Does settling need the internet?
No. Settling writes to the till's own ledger first and syncs later — cash, UPI, card, part pay, change math, the drawer kick and the printed bill all work in airplane mode. A dead router has never stopped a settle.
