    Every year, retail outlets lose 2% to 6% of their revenue to inventory shrinkage, unaccounted discounts, cashier skimming, and uncollected customer credit.

    Key Loss Prevention Controls

    • Blind Shift Cash Reconciliation: Cashiers must enter physical drawer cash without seeing the software total, preventing end-of-day pocketing.
    • Strict Price Modification Permissions: Cashiers cannot alter retail prices or offer unauthorized manual discounts without manager PIN authorization.
    • Tracked Void & Cancelled Invoices: Every cancelled ticket is logged with timestamp, user ID, and mandatory explanation note.
    • Customer Credit Limits: The software halts credit billing if a customer exceeds their pre-approved debt ceiling.
