Step by step
Get the daily summary email
Switch on the daily summary under Settings › Notifications. Kila emails the day's sales, payments, tills, best sellers, stock and approvals at the time you choose.
The daily summary is one email about the trading day, so you know how the business did without opening Kila. The owner or an administrator switches it on and chooses when it goes and who gets it.
Open Settings, Notifications
Go to Administration › Settings and tap Notifications: “What Kila tells managers about, in the app and by email.”
Switch on Daily summary email
Kila says what it sends: “Sales, payments, tills, best sellers, stock and approvals for the trading day, every day at 20:00 (East Africa Time).”
Choose when
Under When, keep At a set time and tap Morning, 07:00, Lunchtime, 13:00, Evening, 18:00 or Night, 20:00, or type your own time. A morning time sends the day before in full: “A morning summary covers yesterday’s whole trading day, 04:00 to 04:00 the next morning, so sales after midnight count for the day they belong to.”
Choose who gets it
Type the addresses in Send to: “Email addresses, separated by commas. Leave empty to send it to the owners and administrators.”
Tap Save changes
Kila says Saved: “The change is in the audit log.”
To see it straight away, tap Send a test now: “Sends the summary as it stands right now, for the time chosen above. Save to keep your choices.” Kila says Test summary sent, with what it covers and who it went to.
After every branch closes
Link to this section: After every branch closesFor a business that trades late, choose After every branch closes under When. The summary then waits for the last branch: “Sales, payments, tills, best sellers, stock and approvals, sent once every branch has closed for the trading day.” It follows each branch’s closing time under Trading hours.
