Record cash in / out
Top up change, pay out petty cash, or correct a miscount โ with a reason.
Overview
Cash In and Cash Out log any manual drawer movement that isn't a sale payment or refund. Every movement requires a reason so managers can audit it later from the Dashboard.
When to use it
- Adding change from the safe at the start of a rush
- Paying a small petty-cash expense out of the drawer
- Correcting a miscount noticed mid-shift
- Refunding or paying out something that didn't go through the sale flow
How to use it
Video tutorial coming soon
- Open Cash Drawer from the side menu.
- Tap Cash In or Cash Out in the Drawer Actions panel.
- Enter the amount on the numeric keypad.
- Tap Confirm โ you'll be prompted for a Reason.
- Type the reason (required) โ e.g., "Float top-up" or "Petty cash โ coffee delivery".
- Tap Submit โ the physical drawer opens and the movement is added to the running totals.
Tips & gotchas
- The reason shows up in the Dashboard's Logs tab โ write something a manager can read three months from now.
- Cash Out cannot exceed the Current Cash in the drawer โ the app will block the confirm if you try.
- Manual cash-ins and cash-outs do not carry over into the next shift's opening balance โ the next shift starts from whatever gets counted at that shift's Start Shift.
