OTP-verified deposits
End-of-day deposits are confirmed with an OTP to a head-office verifier, so every deposit is attributable and approved.
Use case
Field cash, collected and reconciled — with zero guesswork.
OTP-verified deposits, automatic bank reconciliation, and crate tracking — so cash spends less time exposed and end-of-day reconciliation stops being an argument.

In short
SalesPort's Cash & Crate module digitises field cash collection: collections are captured with OTP-confirmed deposits, reconciled against bank credits, and tracked alongside crate movement — shrinking cash-in-transit risk from days to near-zero and ending the manual end-of-day reconciliation grind.
Why field cash leaks and disputes
Field collections move as cash through too many hands before they reach a bank. Reconciliation is manual, shortfalls are 'investigated', and the working capital sits exposed for days. Meanwhile crates and returnables walk off the books because nobody tracks them per route.
The result is cash-in-transit risk, recurring end-of-day disputes, and shrinkage absorbed as a cost of doing business when it shouldn't be.

The specific workflows and screens that solve it.
2
Bank reconciliation
Collections reconcile automatically against bank credits, so cash that's collected is cash that's accounted for.
3
Crate & returnables tracking
Crates and returnables are tracked per route and party, turning invisible shrinkage into a managed number.
4
Thermal receipts & WhatsApp invoices
Collections are receipted on a thermal printer or shared as a PDF over WhatsApp, giving the retailer a record.
5
Real-time HQ visibility
Head office sees pending deposits, mismatches, and route-level cash flow live — no waiting for end-of-day phone calls.
What controlling field cash is worth
Cutting cash-in-transit time from days to near-zero reduces both risk and the financing cost of exposed working capital, while per-route crate tracking recovers ₹15–30 Lakh a year of returnables shrinkage for a mid-size dairy. The DSO and van-sales calculators help size it.
