Expenses

The Expenses module tracks cash outflows that are not purchase orders — petty cash, utility bills, maintenance, and other day-to-day operational costs. Every expense is categorised so you can see where money is going beyond food cost.

Logging an expense

Expenses are added directly from the Cashier POS app during a till session.

1. 1
   Open the expense entry on the POS

   From the Cashier POS, go to the expenses option during your session.
2. 2
   Fill in the details

   Enter the amount, select a category, and add a description.
3. 3
   Save

   The expense is recorded and appears immediately in the Expense Report.

Expense categories

Expense categories are managed from the Management App. Go to Expenses → Categories → New Category to add or edit categories. Cashiers select from these categories when logging an expense on the POS.

Till payouts vs expenses

Cash paid out directly from a till session during service (e.g. paying a delivery driver) is logged as a Till Payout — this flows through Till Management and appears in the Till Session Report.
