Every business starts with one cash box that all staff share. Do you keep more than one cash box? Add each one and choose the staff who work on it. Each cash box shows its day for cash, M-Pesa and the bank, and a manager counts it and closes it.

Nothing.
Starts every business with one cash box that all staff share. A shop with one cash box has nothing to set up.
Do you keep a second cash box? On the web app, open Today's cash → Manage cash boxes, add the second cash box, and choose it for the staff who work on it.
Sends their money to that cash box from their next sale. What they received before stays in the cash box it went into.
Nothing.
Marks every sale, payment and refund with its cash box at the moment it happens. A refund comes out of the cash box of the staff who gives the money back.
Anyone at the POS opens Today's cash.
Shows the day of their cash box, account by account: what was sold, plus what was collected (lipa kidogo kidogo, debts and invoices), less refunds. Credit sales and open bills are shown separately.
A manager opens the cash box and types what is actually there: the cash, what M-Pesa shows came in, and what the bank app shows.
Shows each difference and records it when the cash box is closed. An account left empty is recorded as not checked, never as correct.
No. Every business starts with one shared cash box, which is how a shop with one cash box already works. Add more only if you keep more than one.
Their next sale goes into the new cash box. What they already received stays in the cash box it went into.
No. A cash box shows only the day's money in and out. What the business holds stays on Account, which staff do not open.
No. Each cash box closes automatically at midnight. Counting and closing it is there for when you want to see the difference.
