  • Date & Time – Live POS session time
  • Cloud Sync Icon – Online / Offline status

Step 1: Open Cash Register (Opening Balance)

What Is Opening Balance?

Opening Balance is the physical cash available in the cash drawer at the start of a shift.

Why Opening Balance Is Mandatory

  • Tracks daily cash movement accurately
  • Enables proper end-of-day reconciliation
  • Prevents cash mismatch and disputes

How to Enter Opening Balance

  1. Count the physical cash in the register
  2. Enter the amount in the Opening Balance field
  3. Save to activate the cash register

⚠️ Important:
Opening balance cannot be edited once saved.

✅ Best Practice:
Always count cash physically before entering the value.
