To make counting the cash inventory easier and to record the exact number of coins and bills, use the count protocol.
It displays the expected cash register balance and provides visual feedback on whether the actual cash register balance matches the expected value. If this is not the case, the discrepancy must be found and corrected.
Set up count protocol
- Open the "Count Protocol" tab under Settings > Cash Register System > Basic Settings.
- Select the desired protocol type here (recommended: "Cash register balance after change withdrawal").
- Save your entry.

Using the count protocol
When creating a daily closing, you will see the "Count Protocol" tab in the header area of the closing draft. After you have created a new count protocol using the "+ Count Protocol" button, you can specify the number of coins and bills in your cash register.
- Enter the existing number of coins and bills for each denomination.
- Your entries are automatically saved.
- The cash register balance you entered is compared with the calculated cash register balance.

Set count protocol as mandatory
You can set it so that a daily closing can only be saved if a count protocol is also present.
- Open the "Count Protocol" tab under Settings > Cash Register System > Basic Settings.
- Activate the "Count Protocol is mandatory" option here.
- Save your entry.
