Cash register management
Cash register management in Shopify POS helps you track and handle cash payments throughout your business day. You can use cash register management to open and close register sessions, manage cash drawers, record cash transactions, and review cash tracking reports.
A register session is a record of all cash activity and payments during specified intervals, including the starting float, any cash added or removed, and the final count. At the end of a session, the Cash tracking and the Session reports summarize payment activity so that you can compare your expected cash total against what's physically in the drawer and get an overview of the payment types during that session.
To use a cash drawer with Shopify POS, review Managing your Shopify POS cash drawer.
When you're ready to start tracking cash activity in Shopify POS, you need to open a register session. To open, close, or adjust a register session from Shopify POS, review Managing register sessions from Shopify POS.
You can also manage register sessions from your Shopify admin. To review or adjust sessions from your Shopify admin, review Managing register sessions from the Shopify admin.
To review cash tracking reports by location, go to Viewing Shopify POS cash tracking reports in the Shopify admin.
