The Business Hours feature lets you generate reports based on your actual operating hours instead of the standard calendar day. This is especially useful for restaurants, cafés, bars, and other businesses that operate past midnight.
For example, if your business operates from 4:00 PM to 2:00 AM, all sales during this period can be counted as one business day instead of being split across two calendar days.
