What reports are in register? #

register by ability business is built to keep reporting simple, clear, and directly useful for daily operations. While some systems overload you with dozens of reports, register focuses on the essentials. Helping you track cash, reconcile sales, and stay confident in your numbers.

1. Drawer Count Report
   This report captures the opening and closing balances in your cash drawer. It ensures accuracy from the start to the end of each shift, highlighting any overages or shortages so you can address issues quickly. The result: smoother shift handoffs and stronger accountability for your team.
2. End of Day Report
   The End of Day report provides a snapshot of your daily performance — sales totals, payment types, and transaction counts. It’s the go-to report for reconciling before closing and ensures everything lines up before syncing with QuickBooks Online. This keeps your books accurate without extra manual work.
3. Drawer Count History
   Beyond daily reports, Register gives you Drawer Count History — a running log of past counts. This feature makes it easy to spot patterns, track trends in over/shorts, and review historical data when questions come up. It’s a simple way to keep your cash-handling process transparent and consistent.

Together, these reports give business owners confidence that their cash and sales data are accurate, easy to track, and seamlessly connected to QuickBooks Online.
