Shifts & Cash Control
Every sale belongs to a cashier, a terminal and a counted drawer.
Cash goes missing in shops that cannot say who had the drawer. Shifts tie every sale, refund and cash movement to a cashier and a terminal, and bracket them between two counts.
Opening a shift means choosing the terminal, counting the drawer and entering the opening float. During the shift, pay-ins and pay-outs record cash that moves for reasons other than a sale — including a supplier paid in cash from the till. An X-Report shows live totals at any moment without closing anything.
Closing asks for a counted drawer and compares it with the expected figure: opening float, plus cash sales, minus cash refunds, plus pay-ins, minus pay-outs and cash supplier payments. The difference is recorded as variance with a reason from your own list, and the close freezes a Z-Report — the permanent record of that shift.

Use Cases
Shift handover
The morning cashier closes with a count, the afternoon cashier opens with their own. Neither inherits the other's discrepancy.
A recurring short drawer
Shifts by cashier shows whose drawer is short, how often and against which reason — a conversation based on numbers rather than suspicion.
Paying a supplier from the till
Cash handed to a delivery driver is recorded as a supplier payment and shows up in that shift's expected cash, so the evening count still balances.
