Tendered Amount & Change Return
When a customer pays more than the invoice total, IsleBooks POS automatically calculates the change that should be returned.
This is commonly used for cash payments.
Returning Change
Complete the sale as normal.
Select Cash as the payment method.
In the Tendered Amount box on the right, enter the amount received from the customer.
For example:
Invoice Total: MVR 230.00
Customer Pays: MVR 500.00
As soon as the tendered amount is entered, IsleBooks POS automatically displays:
Change: MVR 270.00
Verify the change amount.
Click Confirm Sale to complete the transaction.
Exact Payment
If the customer pays the exact invoice amount, simply:
Click Exact, or
Enter the exact amount received.
The change returned will be MVR 0.00.
Quick Cash Buttons
For faster checkout, IsleBooks POS provides quick cash amount buttons such as:
5
10
20
50
100
500
1000
Clicking one of these buttons automatically fills the Tendered Amount field.
If the selected amount is greater than the invoice total, the system immediately calculates the change to return.
Payment Methods
Automatic change calculation is primarily intended for Cash payments.
For payments made using Card, Bank Transfer, Cheque, Advance, or Credit Sale, enter the payment amount according to the amount actually received.

If your invoice layout includes a Change Return field, the calculated change is printed on the customer's receipt.
