Till & invoicing

Cash register inspection (Kassennachschau)

An unannounced inspection of till records by the German tax office.

The inspector arrives without warning during business hours, may require the till to be counted, and may ask for the DSFinV-K export.

What counts is zero preparation time: what is not there within minutes is not there. Which is why the process documentation, the till registration and the export function belong in one place you know.
