FoodServa and POSERVA · FoodServa and POSERVA: Point of Sale Manual
The Cash Drawer in FoodServa and POSERVA records every movement of cash that is not a sale, such as petty cash, supplier payments and float top-ups, and lets you count the drawer at the end of each business day against what the system expects. The Shift Report then summarises the shift's sales by type and payment method on one 80mm slip. They are used by cashiers closing the till and by owners and managers checking the day's takings.
Use Cash Out when money leaves the drawer for anything other than a sale refund at the till, and Cash In when you put money in, for example to top up the float.
| Category | Example |
|---|---|
| Petty cash | Bought ice and cleaning supplies |
| Supplier payment | Paid the bread supplier on delivery |
| Refund paid out | Returned cash to a customer |
| Wages / advance | Salary advance to a staff member |
| Other | Anything that does not fit above |
The Movements tab lists every entry for the chosen Period, with Total put in and Total paid out. Tick Show voided to include voided entries.
The Shift Report includes sections such as REVENUE, POINT OF SALE, COMBOS SOLD, PAYMENT METHOD, COUPON DISCOUNT, CREDIT USAGE, DEPOSITS HELD, TAX & NET SALES and REVENUE BY EMPLOYEE, ending with the GRAND TOTAL.

A difference means the counted cash does not match what the system expects. Common causes are a sale taken as cash but recorded as card, a cash payout not recorded, or wrong change given. Check the day's invoices and movements.
