Register Reports

Jul 23, 2026Jul 23, 2026

Your Register Reports give you analytical tools for auditing the cash and accounting activity that runs through your registers: one that lists every accounting journal entry generated by your sales and payments, one that tracks every cash till transaction drawer by drawer, and one that lets you review and verify cash adjustments. This article will show you how to use them to help you reconcile your books, track down cash discrepancies, and confirm your registers are balancing correctly. Take a look at what's there for you!

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I see a running total for the amounts on the Cash Till Ledger Report?

A: No. The Cash Till Ledger Report doesn't include a totals row or a View Total button, but you can still review each drawer's running Balance column line by line, or click Export to total the figures yourself.

 

Q: What's the difference between the Journal Type options on the Cash Till Ledger Report and the Cash Report Reconciliation report?

A: The Cash Till Ledger Report lets you filter by Add, Payout, Open, Close, Sale, or Refund. The Cash Report Reconciliation report only includes Add, Payout, Open, or Close, since it focuses on cash till adjustments rather than sales or refunds.

 

Q: How do I mark a cash till adjustment as verified?

A: On the Cash Report Reconciliation report, click the Verify button next to a single row, or select multiple rows with the checkboxes and click the Verify button above the table to verify them all at once.

 

Q: Can I filter any of the Registers Reports down to a single register drawer?

A: Yes. Both the Cash Till Ledger Report and the Cash Report Reconciliation report include a Drawer filter that defaults to All Drawers, which you can use to select a specific register drawer.
