Hi. How can we help?

Using the cash movements report

The cash movement report allows you to view and filter all recorded cash movements across selected registers and outlets over a specified time period. This enables quick review and export for reconciliation and analysis, and is especially useful if you're a high-volume retailer operating multiple registers and locations.

You can track cash movements for individual registers by using the register closure report.
