The cash drawer records all the physical cash moving through your till during a shift, so the money in the drawer always matches what TillBiz expects.
The cash drawer is part of the Cash drawer feature. If it’s not in your sidebar, your plan may not include it — see Subscription & licensing.

Record a cash in / cash out

1

Open Cash drawer

Select Cash drawer from the sidebar.
2

Choose Cash in or Cash out

Pick the movement that matches what you’re doing.
3

Enter the amount and a reason

A clear reason (e.g. “bank drop”, “supplier paid in cash”) keeps your reconciliation easy to follow.
4

Save

The movement is logged against your current shift.

Current balance

At any time you can see the expected cash in the drawer: opening float, plus cash sales and cash-ins, minus refunds, cash-outs, and cash expenses. This is the figure you’ll count against when you close.
Recording pay-ins and pay-outs as they happen — instead of at close — is the single best way to avoid a confusing cash variance at the end of the day.
