Petrol Pump Cash Reconciliation and Daily Closing
Know exactly how much money should be collected and how much was actually collected — then close the complete business day digitally.
Expected amount. Actual amount. Difference.
The sale of the shift is known from the meter readings. The money arrives as cash, UPI, card, credit and bank transfer. If the two are matched only at night, a shortage in the morning shift is already twelve hours old.
Sanchay reconciles every shift and every day. The expected amount comes from the sales, the actual amount comes from what was collected in each payment mode, and the difference is shown as shortage or excess.

Close the business day digitally
At the end of the day Sanchay summarises everything that happened at the pump.
-
1
Shifts are closed
Every shift of the day is reconciled and closed. Shift status is part of the summary.
-
2
The day is summarised
Fuel sales, litres sold, cash, UPI, card, credit, expenses, purchases, stock, variance and outstanding.
-
3
The day is approved
The person responsible reviews and approves the closing.
-
4
The day is locked
Once approved, the day can be locked against unauthorized editing.
Why it matters
Shortage is found in the shift
A difference is seen at handover, when the person responsible is still present.
UPI and card are counted too
Every payment mode is matched, not only the cash drawer.
Yesterday cannot change
A locked day protects your figures. Reopening a day can require approval.

The expected amount is what should have been collected for the fuel sold in the shift or day. It is compared with the actual amount collected across all payment modes.
