Cash change worksheet

Planning worksheet only. These figures stay on this page and never create POS records.

Keep these payment states separate

  1. For cash, count the tender and return the correct change.
  2. For a manual M-Pesa record, confirm the payment in the merchant’s own service before entering its reference.
  3. For a manual card record, use the merchant’s authorised card process and keep its confirmation; do not enter card numbers or security codes into this worksheet.
  4. If confirmation is delayed, investigate before recording another sale or treating a typed reference as verified.
  5. Reconcile payment records against the merchant service and the POS sale once.

What is connected in this release

Cash checkout and manually entered payment references are supplied. Automatic phone prompts, card processing and eTIMS submission are not connected. A reference typed by a cashier is a record, not a provider callback or payment confirmation. This page cannot send a prompt, accept a payment or confirm a transfer.

Apply the same unit check to payments

Keep feed intended for different animals and life stages separate. A 10 kg and a 50 kg bag require distinct stock entries.
