Cashier Breakdown by Payment Method

Introduction

The cashier breakdown by payment method report provides a detailed view of all collections for a cashier, shift, or department, split by each payment method. It is used by finance managers and supervisors to verify that collection totals match the physical cash and non-cash instruments on hand, and to identify the composition of daily revenue.

Main Menu → Financial Transaction Manager → Reports → Payment Method Breakdown OR Main Menu → Financial Reports → Cashier Payment Method Summary

Generating the Report

1. Navigate to the payment method breakdown report page.
2. Set the filters:
   • Date range (From Date, To Date)
   • Cashier — specific cashier or all
   • Department / Cashier Point — filter by location
   • Shift — specific shift number or all shifts in the date range
3. Click Generate.

Report Columns

Column	Description
Cashier	Name of the cashier
Shift	Shift reference
Date	Billing date
Cash	Total cash collected
Card	Total card collected
Credit	Total billed to credit companies
Cheque	Total cheque payments received
eWallet	Total e-wallet collections
PatientDeposit	Total drawn from patient deposit balances
PatientPoints	Total redeemed as loyalty points
Other	Any other payment methods
Grand Total	Sum of all methods

Totals Row

The report footer shows column totals across all cashiers/shifts in the filter period. This grand total should match the cashier's collection totals in the shift summary and the day-end cash book entry.

Reconciliation Use

Finance staff use this report to:

1. Match the Cash column against the physical cash counted in the safe.
2. Match the Card column against the POS terminal batch settlement report.
3. Match the Cheque column against the cheque register.
4. Match the Credit column against the credit company receivable ledger.
5. Identify any unexplained differences.

Comparing with the Daily Return Report

The payment method breakdown counts payment records (from the payment table). The Daily Return report counts bills. A discrepancy between the two indicates bills with no matching payment records — a data integrity issue. See Day-End Report for the reconciliation process.
