Custom Expense Categories in the Branch Treasury on TtaKkaa
A shop owner who pays an electricity bill or receives a delivery and pays cash out of the cashier drawer needs to know exactly where that expense went at the end of the month, not just "some cash went out." TtaKkaa solves this with custom expense categories in the branch treasury.
The problem: expenses lumped into one number
Without categories, every expense that comes out of the cashier drawer (electricity, maintenance, transport, daily wages) gets lumped into one number, and the owner has no idea at month's end exactly where the money went.
How TtaKkaa solves it
TtaKkaa gives you default expense categories, and also lets you add custom categories specific to your shop. Every time you log an expense from the treasury, you pick the right category, and at month's end you can see a report showing exactly how much was spent on each one.
Who can log an expense
Logging an expense or withdrawal from the treasury isn't open to just anyone — it requires a specific permission or an approved PIN from the owner or branch manager, so no one takes cash out of the drawer without it being tracked and traceable.
An example from a grocery store
A grocery store owner pays the branch's electricity bill in cash from the cashier drawer and logs it under "Electricity & Utilities." At month's end, they see a report showing total electricity spend compared to last month, instead of trying to remember from a paper receipt.
The numbers, honestly
Instead of every expense being one lumped number at month's end, you now get a clear breakdown by category, helping you know exactly where you're spending and control expenses more precisely.
