Cash Buy & Sell

The "no customer" version of the trade form: someone walks in, hands over cash, and takes currency (or the other way around), and that's it — no account needed, no history. Here, the other side of the trade is one of the exchange's own tills: cash goes into the till or comes out of it.

Where This Page Fits

• See till balances on the Dashboard and General Ledger → Tills.
• These trades also show up in the Trades list, and their profit is included in the P&L report.

Step by Step

It's like the currency buy & sell form; you just choose a Till instead of a customer account — the till whose cash actually moves.

Notes

• Profit on these trades is calculated the same way as the rest.
• In the "Profit by Customer" report, cash trades are counted separately since they have no specific customer.

Third-party commission

If you pay a broker or referrer for a trade, use the "Third-party commission" section: pick the recipient account, the currency (one of the two trade currencies only) and the amount. The commission is credited to the recipient within the same document and settled later with a normal transfer. Like a fee, it is reflected in the trade’s average cost and profit (after deduction) and is not shown on the trade customer’s statement — only in the private column and on the recipient’s own statement.

Multiply or divide? (the operator next to the rate)

Inside the rate box there is a small × or ÷ button. It shows what the app does with the rate: the first amount is multiplied by the rate or divided by it to produce the second amount. As soon as you pick the two currencies the app sets the right operator itself, so normally you never touch it.

Where it matters: converting currencies derived from one another — Tehran dollar to Istanbul dollar, for example — whose rate sits near 1, so the size of the rate no longer reveals the direction. If the second amount comes out the opposite of what you expected, click the button to flip × to ÷ (or back); it turns amber to show the choice is now yours. Changing either currency, or flipping buy/sell, returns it to automatic.

Each amount box also carries the code of its own currency, so you always know which currency you are typing the number in — without looking back up the form.
