Know how much cash should be in the drawer at any moment, and find out at close whether it is all there — without adding up receipts by hand.
SageBizet Cash drawer is a free cash reconciliation tool: open a session with a float, watch expected cash rise with every cash sale, and count at close to record whether the drawer was over or short.
Open the drawer with a float and SageBizet adds every cash sale to it as the day goes on, so the expected total is always on screen — not worked out at the end of the night.
At close, count the drawer and enter the total. SageBizet records what was expected, what was counted and the difference, over or short.
Every closed session is kept with its float, cash sales, expected and counted amounts, so a pattern of short closes is visible rather than forgotten by next week.
When a drawer closes noticeably over or short, a notification goes to the business, so an owner who is not at the counter still hears about it the same day.
SageBizet counts your run of clean closes — sessions that balanced — which gives the team a simple, visible goal for careful cash handling.
At the start of the shift, enter the float — the cash already in the drawer for change.
Each cash sale at the POS raises the expected cash. Card, mobile and tab sales do not, because that money is not in the drawer.
At the end of the shift, count the cash and enter the total. The difference from expected is recorded as over, short or balanced.
Look back over past sessions to see how often the drawer balances and when differences happen.
Reconciling a cash drawer means comparing the cash that should be there with the cash that is. The expected figure is the float you started with plus the cash you took in sales. Counting at close and recording the difference every shift turns a vague sense that “the till is sometimes short” into a record you can act on.
