Cash drawer
Count the notes, see the variance, lock the day. Every movement is on an append-only ledger nobody can quietly edit.
The problem
Cash goes out for a delivery, the owner takes some for a supplier, someone floats change from their own pocket. By 9pm the drawer and the till report disagree and nobody can say why.
A close that takes forty minutes and still feels like a guess
No way to tell shrinkage from a missed entry
Owner withdrawals that never make it into the books
In practice
Capabilities
Enter how many of each note and coin you are holding. The total calculates itself — no mental arithmetic at the end of a twelve-hour day.
Expected is derived from the ledger, not typed in. The difference between expected and counted is the only number that matters, and it is on screen.
Money the owner takes is a transaction like any other, attributed and dated, so it stops being a mystery in the monthly numbers.
Ledger rows are never edited. A correction is a new reversing entry, so history stays intact and every change has an author.

The flow
Record the opening float at the start of the day.
Payments, expenses and withdrawals post themselves as they happen.
Enter your denominations. Expected, counted and variance appear together.
Submit the reconciliation. The day is closed with a trail you can hand to anyone.
Questions
You record why. A short note attaches to the reconciliation, so a pattern becomes visible over weeks instead of being forgotten each night.
