What's the cashbook?
The cashbook feature allows you to record all cash movements of your cash register and to always have an up-to-date overview of your cash balance.
Cash movements from sales are recorded automatically, other cash movements such as cash deposits or the payment of salary for example must be recorded manually in the cashbook.
Setting up the cashbook
Before the cashbook can be used, it must be set up once.
This is a one-time process. So make sure you count all your available cash and enter it at this point.
The cashbook can only be set up directly after opening the till and must be set up before the first transaction.
If a transaction already has been carried out, the activation and setup will start after opening the next till.
To be able to use the cashbook feature, the following rights are required :
access “drawer management”
access “settings”
Log in to your cash register interface and open a till.
The cashbook onboarding flow will appear
If no transaction has been carried out yet after the till was opened, follow the onboarding and enter the total available cash balance and confirm it - press “OK” to proceed with taking orders or choose “Take me to the cashbook” to go to the cashbook tab in the settings
If at least 1 transaction has been carried out after the till was opened, the onboarding flow will appear after closing the till and reopening the till on the next business day - follow the onboarding and enter the total available cash balance and confirm it
Your cashbook is now set up and ready to use
Make a cashbook entry
After the cash book is set up, you can make your entries.
To do this, proceed as follows:
First you can choose whether you want to enter a withdrawal or a deposit - select the corresponding button.
In the next step, enter the amount you want to book.
Attention! In the case of a withdrawal, the amount may not be higher than the actual cash balance!
If the amount is higher, you will receive a warning. Then please check your entry. In the case of a withdrawal, it is not necessary to enter the amount as a negative amount, this is done automatically !!!
Now select the reason for your withdrawal or deposit.
In the next step you have the possibility to enter an optional booking text (e.g. salary for employee XY).
In the last step, check your entries once again and confirm them.
Your booking is now entered.
Cancel cashbook entries
Due to legal regulations, it is unfortunately not possible to cancel a cashbook entry. Therefore, please pay attention to your entries in the overview before confirming the booking.
