  • At close, select the open cash shift, enter counted Closing amount (minor), and add notes for over/short differences, bank deposit, or handover.
  • Compare Transactions, refund ledger, credit ledger, and cash count before finance close.

Correct outcome

Cash collection has an opening balance, payment evidence, closing count, variance note, and finance audit trail.
