Variance Tracking

Monitor cash discrepancies and over/short amounts.

• Per-Till Variance: Each till has its own variance calculation - not store-wide
• Expected vs. Counted: System compares expected cash to counted cash
• Over/Short Tracking: Positive variance = over (too much cash), negative = short (missing cash)
• Discrepancy Alerts: System highlights variances for attention
• Staff Accountability: Variance is linked to staff member who closed till
• Historical Tracking: Track variance trends over time per till

Variance Formula: Variance = Counted Cash - (Starting Cash + Cash Sales - Cash Refunds). System calculates this automatically. Positive variance means drawer has more cash than expected (possibly overcharged or miscounted). Negative variance means drawer is short (possibly undercharged, gave wrong change, or cash was removed).
