Close the till at end of shift

When to use this: at the end of your shift. Ending the session closes the till.

Steps

  1. Click End Session. The dialog shows the Current Till Balance (opening + sales − returns).
  2. Enter any Cash Adjustments, Deposits to Head Office, and Deposits to Bank — each lowers the Expected Closing Balance.
  3. Count the drawer and enter the Actual Cash Count. If the count is within ± Rs 10 of the expected balance, the drawer is treated as balanced — no reason needed. A variance of Rs 10 or more (over or short) shows as Overage or Shortage and requires a Reason for Discrepancy.
  4. Add optional Closing Notes and confirm.
End Session dialog — current balance, deposits, expected closing balance, and actual cash count
End Session — the Current Till Balance, optional Cash Adjustments / deposits that lower the Expected Closing Balance, and the Actual Cash Count you enter from the drawer. Variances under ± Rs 10 are treated as balanced; Rs 10 or more over/short needs a reason.

You’re done when

A Session Summary Report (inflows, outflows, expected vs actual, discrepancy) is shown and can be printed. The till is closed.
