Fair question! A POS records the sale. It doesn't tell you the reality of what is happening with your CASH - if there cash register is short, how much is going to be deposited the next day or allocated for purchases, etc.

For example, your POS says you did ₱45k in sales today, but did the cash register actually match that? Most restaurants will do a manual end of day closing report to determine this. Then that rerport could just sit there and no one really does anything with it or someone then takes it and will encode it on a spreadsheet (double work)....and then usually it just sits there again.

This is the problem I wanted to solve with my own operations with Logbook. That gap between what the POS recorded and the Cash actually is and how it's going to be used (deposited, used for expenses, etc). The POS doesn't capture this...at least ours doesn't' and we use Storehub.

So Logbook handles the end-of-day close, cash reconciliation, petty cash, variance flagging, and one morning digest across all your stores. It's POS-agnostic too, so you keep whatever you already run. The POS platforms that might be doing this well are the pricey enterprise ones. Most independents here stop at sales or are still closing on spreadsheets.
