A daily startup and shutdown checklist for retail store managers and IT support ensuring all point-of-sale terminals, peripherals, and payment systems are functioning before the store opens. Covers terminal boot-up, barcode scanner testing, card reader and contactless verification, receipt printer loading, cash drawer function, and end-of-day backup and batch closing procedures.

POS system failures during trading hours cause queues, lost sales, and frustrated customers. Most failures — a scanner that needs cleaning, a printer out of paper, a card reader that's lost its network connection — are preventable with a 5-minute morning check. This checklist catches the issues before the first customer arrives.
