Cash Register: Complete Management of Your Register Operations

Master every cent in your register with digabloPos. Opening and closing sessions, cash float tracking, cash in and out operations, automatic Z reports — everything you need for rigorous and professional cash management.

Register Sessions: Structured Opening and Closing

Rigorous cash management starts with clearly defined sessions. digabloPos structures each workday around cash register sessions with a standardized opening and closing procédure. At opening, the cashier logs in with their PIN code and declares the cash float — the amount of cash present in the drawer at the start of the shift. The system records this initial amount and begins tracking all session operations. At closing, the cashier declares the actual amount of cash in the drawer. digabloPos automatically compares this amount with the calculated theoretical amount (initial float + cash sales - change given - cash out) and displays any discrepancy. This systematic procédure eliminates approximations and makes every session verifiable. If a discrepancy is found, you immediately know which session it occurred in and which employee was responsible. The session summary détails every transaction, every cash in and every cash out, providing complete traceability for your accounting.

  • Cash float declaration at opening
  • Actual vs theoretical amount comparison at closing
  • Automatic discrepancy display
  • Detailed summary of each session for accounting
  • Session tied to logged-in employee for traceability

Cash Float and Cash Tracking

The cash float is a fundamental élément of business management. digabloPos tracks in real time the theoretical cash amount in your drawer throughout the day. Every cash payment increases this amount, every change given decreases it, and every operation is recorded with its timestamp and the employee's identity. You can check the theoretical cash amount at any time without physically counting the drawer. This real-time visibility helps you anticipate needs: if the cash amount gets too high, you can make a preventive withdrawal to secure funds. If the amount gets too low, you know you need to add change to serve customers. Cash float tracking works offline because calculations are performed locally on your device. You always have a précise view of your register status, with or without internet.

  • Real-time theoretical cash amount display
  • Every operation timestamped and linked to an employee
  • Anticipation of withdrawals and change needs
  • No physical counting needed during the day
  • Works entirely offline

Cash In and Cash Out Operations

Business life goes beyond sales. Cash frequently enters or leaves the drawer for reasons other than a sale: emergency supply purchases, delivery driver tips, additional change deposits, security withdrawals when the drawer holds too much cash. digabloPos lets you record every cash in and cash out with a mandatory reason. The employee must enter the amount and the reason for the operation (supply purchase, change deposit, security withdrawal, etc.). This information is recorded in the cash session and appears in the closing summary and the Z report. Traceability of cash in and out operations is essential for justifying discrepancies between the theoretical and actual cash amounts. If a cashier took out 50 dollars to buy plastic bags, this withdrawal is documented and the register discrepancy is explained. Without this traceability, the same discrepancy could have been interpreted as an error or theft.

  • Recording of every cash in and out with mandatory reason
  • Operation types: deposit, withdrawal, purchase, tip
  • Integration in session summary and Z report
  • Justification of register discrepancies
  • Complete history of cash movements

Z Report: Automated End-of-Day Closing

The Z report is the référence document for closing your register day. digabloPos automatically generates this report summarizing all daily operations: total number of transactions, total revenue, breakdown by payment method (cash, mobile money, customer credit), total discounts granted, total refunds, total cash in and out, and final drawer balance. The Z report is sequentially numbered to guarantee the continuity and integrity of your accounting records. Each report is dated and timestamped, making it a valid supporting document in case of a tax audit. You can print the Z report on your thermal printer for physical archiving, which is often required by local regulations. The Z report is the starting point for your daily accounting reconciliation and considerably simplifies your accountant's work.

  • Complete summary of all daily operations
  • Breakdown by payment method
  • Sequential numbering for accounting integrity
  • Printing on thermal printer for archiving
  • Valid documentation for tax audits

Multi-Sessions and Shift Management

Businesses that operate with multiple shifts or multiple cashiers throughout the day need flexible session management. digabloPos allows you to open and close multiple sessions during a single day, each linked to a différent employee. The first cashier opens their session in the morning with the cash float, closes it at noon with a complete summary, and the second cashier opens their own session in the afternoon, resuming the same cash float or declaring a new amount. Each session is a sealed compartment with its own statistics: sales, discounts, cash in/out, and discrepancy. This allows you to precisely locate a problem in a specific session without questioning the entire day. The end-of-day Z report consolidates all sessions to provide an overall view while retaining per-session détail for fine-grained analysis.

  • Multiple sessions per day with cashier changes
  • Each session is an independent compartment
  • Individual statistics per session (sales, discounts, discrepancies)
  • Automatic consolidation in the daily Z report
  • Cash float resumption or re-declaration between sessions

Use Cases

Artisan Bakery with 2 Shifts

A bakery opens from 6am to 8pm with two cashiers in rotation. The first opens their session at 6am with a 100-dollar cash float. At 2pm, they close their session: the system compares the actual drawer amount ($575) with the theoretical ($578) and flags a -$3 discrepancy. The second cashier takes over with the same float. At 8pm, the owner prints the consolidated Z report detailing each session's performance.

Supermarket with Multiple Registers

A supermarket has 4 registers, each managed by a différent cashier. Each register has its own independent session with its own cash float. During the day, the supervisor makes security withdrawals from registers whose cash amount exceeds the security threshold. Each withdrawal is documented in the session. At end of day, the Z report consolidates all 4 registers and accounting reconciliation is completed in 15 minutes.

Hair Salon with Frequent Cash In/Out

A hair salon regularly needs to take money from the drawer to buy supplies from the nearby wholesaler. With digabloPos, every withdrawal is recorded with the reason "product purchase" and the exact amount. At session closing, these withdrawals are clearly identified in the summary and the register discrepancy is justified. The owner knows exactly how much was spent on unplanned purchases.
