CUSTOMER STATEMENTS AS PDF Open any customer and tap Statement. Choose this month, last month, the last 90 days or your own dates, see the pages, then share the PDF on WhatsApp or email, or print it. Each statement carries your business name and logo, what the customer owed at the start, every sale with each item bought, every payment, and the balance after each line. A CLEANER CUSTOMER SCREEN What the customer owes comes first, with Receive payment right beside it. Edit Profile sits at the top, and the statement, opening balance and balance check are one tap away. CASH THAT REACHES THE OWNER • Staff can hand cash to the owner, and the owner signs for it in the app • A manager can take cash from the owner's drawer, and the owner is notified to confirm • Pay an expense straight from the owner's drawer, and it comes off the drawer, not someone's own cash SET UP YOUR PAYMENT METHODS Owners: go to Point of Sale and tap the card icon at the top right.

Narrow it to one rep, check the figures add up, and export it to a spreadsheet for your accountant. REP STATEMENTS Tap any rep to see everything on one sheet: what they sold, which products, stock loaded and returned, cash handed in, and credit still owed, customer by customer. CUSTOMER BALANCES • Check which customer balances don't match their statement, then correct them or leave them as they are • Every row on a statement now shows the balance right after it, so any debt can be traced to the sale that caused it ORDERS • Cancelling an order now asks how the refund was paid: cash, transfer or POS • Deposits, balances collected on delivery and extra payments now count in the session of whoever took the money • Search for a customer when taking an order • Order receipts in Covars blue FIXES • A sale sent twice on a weak connection no longer charges the customer twice • Cancelling an order no longer credits the customer twice • Editing a customer's details no longer changes what they owe • Orders save correctly on the web • Clearer error messages, shown in front of the screen you're on ### 2.1.21 — 2026-09-11 What's new in Covars 2.1.21 CASH & POINT OF SALE • Cash handover: when a sales session closes, the rep records who they gave the cash to, and that person confirms it.
