Petty Cash

BoothPoint allows authorized users to issue petty cash directly from the POS. Access to petty cash functions depends on the user’s permission level, ensuring only approved staff can withdraw funds.

 

All petty cash withdrawals are fully recorded, timestamped, and departmentalized for audit and administrative purposes. This ensures complete accountability and provides clear reporting for management and finance teams.

 

Typical petty cash uses include:

 

  • Emergency purchases

  • Small maintenance items

  • Staff refreshments

  • Low‑value operational expenses

 

Every transaction is logged and can be reviewed in the Petty Cash Viewer.

  3. A prompt will appear asking you to enter the value of the petty cash withdrawal.
