### Manual Close Batch

If your batch did not close and you are receiving a '**Please Settle**' error message when you do a transaction; but do not have the Error Message from the Batch Close,  first try to manually settle the batch and get the error message that is returned.

Here are the steps to close the batch using the PAX utility application

2. Open **POSLink Demo App** on POS
3. Click on Batch Tab
4. Click **Close Batch** and select Start to process that will manually close out your batch
5. Note the result code. If it says **OK** your batch has been closed and you can continue ringing sales.
6. Close the POSLink Demo App (Wait for 5 seconds).
7. Reopen the retailcloud App and start processing.
