Ports the expense tracker and cash counter from @kamit13's dev branch to current main. Closes #645.

What it adds

  • Expenses page: material categories with paid/due balances, append-only expense entries and due payments (built-ins plus active custom payment methods), monthly report split by method with one column per custom method in use.
  • Cash counter page: daily opening float, cash collected from orders, cash refunds, cash paid out as expenses, expected cash, append-only physical counts with variance, monthly report.
  • Backend: /api/expenses and /api/cash-counter, one v82 migration, role entries (category management for owner/manager, recording for all staff), sidebar items, docs.
  • Tests: 65 expense and 65 cash-counter assertions, upgrade-path coverage, translation parity across all 8 locales (fr/de translated, fil/tr carry marked English fallback).

Port notes (changed from the original branch)

  • One v82 migration instead of five: the tables never shipped, so there is no intermediate shape to preserve.
  • Left out on purpose: the WhatsApp offer commit, the orders master-detail redesign, and the best-sellers flag. Each belongs in its own PR.
  • Cash math follows the Z day-close drawer rule: store-timezone day bounds, bills keyed by paid_at, expected cash subtracts cash refunds. The counter is the live day view, the close stays the formal record.
  • Custom methods resolve like bill payments (case-insensitive, canonical name stored); only cash ever counts as drawer cash. Category due is rounded to cents; non-existent calendar dates are rejected.
  • Kept as is on purpose: REAL major-unit amounts matching the bills table (cents conversion only for the refunds table at the boundary), and append-only floats/counts with no edit path (same audit rule as entries and payments).

Verification

  • npm run lint (0 errors), npm run build, npm run build:frontend (both routes prerendered)
  • test:expenses 65/65, test:cash-counter 65/65, test:cash-closures 282/282, test:translations, test:upgrade-path, test:schema-health, all pass
  • Visual pass on a seeded stack, dark and light themes, console clean, no failed network requests. Evidence: 01 expenses overview, 02 record-payment modal, 03 cheque payment submitted end to end (Curd due 300 to 100, Cheque column 800 to 1000), 04 cash-counter daily (float, orders, expenses, negative expected cash, count variance), 05 monthly table with refunds column, 06 fixed dark-mode modal, 07 light-mode overview. One visual defect found and fixed in this PR: the modals hardcoded bg-white and were unreadable in dark mode.

Summary by CodeRabbit

Port of kamit13/FloCafe@dev expense and cash-counter work onto current main. Migrations renumbered to v82-v85 (v75-v81 taken upstream).
- Renumber migrations v75-v78 to v82-v85 (numbers taken upstream); drop best-seller v79 (out of scope).
- Round category due to cents so float residue cannot block deletion.
- Add de/fil/fr/tr locale keys (fr/de translated, fil/tr English fallback marked pending) and allow-list entries for translations gate.

Greptile Summary

The PR adds expense tracking and cash-counter workflows, including persistence, reporting, permissions, navigation, translations, and tests. It also attempts to address the prior date-validation and timezone findings, but the frontend timezone fix still leaves UTC-based dates usable during asynchronous initialization.

  • Adds append-only expense, payment, opening-float, and cash-count records with administrative void operations.
  • Adds daily and monthly finance reports using store-local backend date boundaries.
  • Adds expense and cash-counter pages, permissions, navigation entries, translations, documentation, migration coverage, and route tests.
  • Correctly rejects impossible calendar dates and uses the configured store timezone in backend business-date normalization.

Confidence Score: 4/5

The PR is not yet safe to merge because staff can still submit financial records using an uncorrected UTC date before frontend timezone initialization completes.

Both finance pages expose submission paths while their date state is initialized from UTC and corrected only by a separate asynchronous settings request, leaving the previously reported wrong-business-date behavior reachable.

Files Needing Attention: frontend/src/app/(dashboard)/expenses/page.tsx; frontend/src/app/(dashboard)/cash-counter/page.tsx

Important Files Changed

Filename Overview
main/routes/finance-shared.ts Centralizes calendar validation and store-local date normalization; the prior impossible-date and backend UTC issues are fixed.
main/routes/expenses.ts Adds expense-category, ledger, payment, summary, and void endpoints using the shared corrected date validation.
main/routes/cash-counter.ts Adds daily and monthly drawer calculations plus opening-float and count endpoints using store-local boundaries.
frontend/src/app/(dashboard)/expenses/page.tsx Adds the expense interface, but UTC initial date state remains submit-capable before asynchronous timezone initialization finishes.
frontend/src/app/(dashboard)/cash-counter/page.tsx Adds cash-counter reporting and recording, with the same remaining UTC initialization window as the expense page.
main/db.ts Adds the v82 expense and cash-counter schema and supporting indexes.
tests/expenses.test.ts Covers backend expense behavior and invalid calendar dates but does not exercise frontend timezone initialization.
tests/cash-counter.test.ts Covers backend cash-counter behavior and store-local report boundaries but not the frontend asynchronous date correction.

P1 Invalid business dates persist

When staff submit a regex-valid nonexistent date such as 2026-02-30, this validation accepts and persists it, causing financial records to be stranded under a date that normal day selection and cash-counter monthly rows never enumerate. The same validation defect exists in main/routes/cash-counter.ts.

P1 UTC dates misfile local records

When a store in a positive UTC offset passes local midnight before UTC does, both pages initialize and constrain their date inputs using the preceding UTC date, causing staff to record expenses, opening floats, or cash counts against the wrong business day even after the backend validation is corrected.

Fixed with the above: both pages read the store timezone from /settings/business and derive picker defaults and limits from it, falling back to UTC only until settings load.

- White modal containers inherited light body text in dark mode and were unreadable; use the bg-background token like the dialog primitive. Same for the payment-method select.

Thanks for putting so much effort into porting this feature from @kamit13's branch, @carvalab! The test coverage, clean squashed migration (v82), and translation work across all locales are really appreciated.

Could we please hold off on merging this PR for now while I complete a full review?

The core use case (tracking petty cash leaving the drawer and daily drawer counts) is definitely a real everyday pain point for cafes. However, having looked through the implementation, there are a few architectural and operational questions we need to resolve before bringing this into main:

  1. Store Timezone vs. UTC:
    In main/routes/finance-shared.ts and the frontend views, business dates currently default to and validate against UTC (utcTodayDate()) rather than the store's configured timezone setting. In stores outside UTC, transactions near midnight will be filed under the wrong business date or rejected. We need this to consistently respect the tenant's configured timezone, matching how our Z-reports handle day boundaries.

  2. Typo and Error Correction (Append-Only model):
    Right now, expense entries, payments, and opening floats are strictly append-only with no edit or delete path (even for owners). In a busy cafe environment, staff will inevitably mistype an amount (e.g., entering $500 instead of $50). Without a void, adjustment, or reversal mechanism, accidental entries permanently distort category dues and expected cash.

  3. Relationship with Existing Cash Closures (Z-Day Close):
    FloCafe already has a formal register day-close flow (/cash-closures / Z-report). We should ensure the UX between the new live "Cash Counter" and the existing "Cash Closures" is completely seamless and intuitive for cashiers so they aren't confused about where to count or close their shift.

  4. Product Scope (Petty Cash vs. Accounts Payable):
    We want to make sure we strike the right balance between standard POS cash drawer tracking (petty cash pay-in / pay-out) and full vendor credit bookkeeping, keeping the core POS workflow lightweight.

Let's keep this branch open and on hold while we work through these points together. Thanks again for the solid groundwork on this!

- CI: rename a shadowed variable that failed type-checking in expenses.test.ts.\n- Store-timezone business dates end to end (backend defaults and future-check, picker defaults and limits); tests pin UTC for determinism.\n- Owner/manager void for entries, payments, and opening floats (v83, live-only float uniqueness); counts stay append-only by design.\n- Custom payment methods validated like bill payments, split out in the monthly summary.\n- Daily failure state, stale-response guards, modal close labels, cent-rounded summary totals.

Summary

The run covers core finance workflows including cash tracking, expense and payment history, category lifecycle, role-based access, and safe database upgrades. It also exercises date and timezone boundaries, invalid inputs, repeated updates, overpayment and deletion rules, and concurrent or adversarial behavior across both normal and edge-case paths.

Merge with caution — a PR-attributable medium-severity validation defect allows an invalid cash-count input to be stored and used in financial variance calculations, which can make operational reporting inaccurate. The issue is confined to an edge-case input path, but it affects data correctness and should be tracked before treating the change as fully safe.

Result Severity Type Description
Medium severity Counts The endpoint should reject counted_amount=null with a client error and create no row. Instead, it returned HTTP 201, stored the value as 0.00, and recalculated the latest variance as -20.00.
General Daily reports for adjacent dates and the monthly report matched exactly. Cash sales, refunds, and expenses were assigned to the same local business date, while card activity stayed out of the cash total.
General All five staff roles received the intended finance access without gaining older restricted access. Cashiers and servers stayed out of reports and staff data, and chefs stayed out of orders, customers, reports, and staff data.
General Verified acceptable by independent adversarial review: the scenario cannot be reached through any real application path. Review notes: The claimed race requires one request to interleave between synchronous better-sqlite3 statements in another request, but the production route is handled by a single in-process Node/Express server and contains no yield point, so requests execute these handlers serially. Given the stated starting due of 100, a delete can read due 0 only after the 100 payment has been inserted; successful deletion t…
Cash The daily cash report included the opening float and cash expense, while excluding card activity. The monthly report also returned successfully with the expected cash totals.
Cash Cash transactions were assigned to the correct local business day, including a payment near the Asia/Kolkata midnight boundary. Invalid payment details were ignored without breaking the report, and the focused cash-counter suite passed all 65 checks.
Categories A settled Chicken category was created, used for a 100 expense and payment, and deleted successfully. It disappeared from active categories while its inactive record and both ledger totals remained available.
Categories A category with an unpaid balance could not be deleted. The same category also stayed active after an overpayment, so its history remained available.
Categories Unauthorized users could not create or delete categories, and invalid expense requests were rejected without adding records.
Counts The opening float was recorded once, both cash counts stayed visible, and the latest count correctly set the variance.
Ledger A staff member can record a dated expense and payment, and the ledger keeps the requested date, rounded amounts, cleaned note, and canonical payment method. The monthly totals and date-filtered history match the recorded rows.
Ledger Invalid dates and payment methods were rejected, while an omitted date used today's UTC date. Rejected requests did not create ledger rows.
Ledger The expense and payment rows stayed in the ledger after all edit and delete attempts returned not found responses.
Migration The database upgrade reached the latest version without losing existing data. A duplicate variable briefly blocked the expense test script, but that test-only error was corrected and all 72 expense checks and 65 cash-counter checks passed.
Migration A new database reached schema version 82, and opening it again made no changes or duplicate records. A database from a newer app version stopped safely without changing its version or saved data.
Permissions All five staff roles signed in successfully after the missing local test accounts were added. Existing access stayed within each role's limits, and every role could open the new finance read-only views as expected.

Medium severity Invalid cash count is saved as zero

What failed: The endpoint should reject counted_amount=null with a client error and create no row. Instead, it returned HTTP 201, stored the value as 0.00, and recalculated the latest variance as -20.00.

Impact · Steps · Stub / mock · Analysis · Why this is likely a bug
  • Severity: Medium Medium severity
  • Impact: An empty cash count is saved as zero, creating an invalid history entry and making the day's cash variance wrong. Staff may rely on an incorrect variance until a valid count replaces it.
  • Steps to Reproduce:
    1. Set an opening float of 20.00 for a business date and record valid counts such as 23.00 and 27.00.
    2. Send a cash count for the same date with counted_amount set to JSON null.
    3. Reload the daily cash report and inspect the count history and variance.
  • Stub / mock content: No stubs, mocks, or bypasses were applied for this test in the recorded run.
  • Code Analysis: In main/routes/cash-counter.ts:15-21, normalizeNonNegativeAmount converts every input with Number(value), then only checks whether the converted result is finite and non-negative. JavaScript Number(null) is 0, so JSON null passes this validation and is rounded to 0. At lines 218-227, the /count route passes req.body?.counted_amount to that helper and inserts the returned value into cash_count_records. The daily handler at lines 172-180 selects the newest stored count and subtracts expected cash from it, so the invalid zero becomes the latest count and changes variance. The PR diff marks main/routes/cash-counter.ts as an added file, making this validation behavior part of the PR. The smallest fix is to require a number before conversion, for example reject values whose typeof is not number, then retain the existing finite and non-negative checks; add a regression case for JSON null and assert that no row is inserted.
  • Why this is likely a bug: This is reproducible through the local count API without mocks or route interception: a JSON null count returns 201 and is stored as zero, while negative counts correctly return 400. The product contract is to reject invalid cash controls, and the resulting zero is not merely a display issue because the append-only row becomes the latest count used for variance. Rejecting non-number inputs before Number(value) is a targeted fix that preserves valid numeric counts and the existing negative and non-finite checks.

  1. Set an opening float of 20.00 for a business date and record valid counts such as 23.00 and 27.00.
  2. Send a cash count for the same date with counted_amount set to JSON null.
  3. Reload the daily cash report and inspect the count history and variance.
- **Stub / mock content:** No stubs, mocks, or bypasses were applied for this test in the recorded run.
- **Code analysis:** In main/routes/cash-counter.ts:15-21, normalizeNonNegativeAmount converts every input with Number(value), then only checks whether the converted result is finite and non-negative. JavaScript Number(null) is 0, so JSON null passes this validation and is rounded to 0. At lines 218-227, the /count route passes req.body?.counted_amount to that helper and inserts the returned value into cash_count_records. The daily handler at lines 172-180 selects the newest stored count and subtracts expected cash from it, so the invalid zero becomes the latest count and changes variance. The PR diff marks main/routes/cash-counter.ts as an added file, making this validation behavior part of the PR. The smallest fix is to require a number before conversion, for example reject values whose typeof is not number, then retain the existing finite and non-negative checks; add a regression case for JSON null and assert that no row is inserted.
- **Why this is likely a bug:** This is reproducible through the local count API without mocks or route interception: a JSON null count returns 201 and is stored as zero, while negative counts correctly return 400. The product contract is to reject invalid cash controls, and the resulting zero is not merely a display issue because the append-only row becomes the latest count used for variance. Rejecting non-number inputs before Number(value) is a targeted fix that preserves valid numeric counts and the existing negative and non-finite checks.

**Relevant code:**

`main/routes/cash-counter.ts:15-21`

~~~ts
function normalizeNonNegativeAmount(value: unknown, field: string): number {
  const amount = Number(value);
  if (!Number.isFinite(amount) || amount < 0) {
    throw Object.assign(new Error(`${field} must be a non-negative number`), { statusCode: 400 });
  }
  return roundMoney(amount);
}
~~~

`main/routes/cash-counter.ts:218-227`

~~~ts

    const note = normalizeNote(req.body?.note);
    const db = getDatabase();
    const result = db.prepare(`
      INSERT INTO cash_count_records (date, counted_amount, note, created_by, created_at)

Thanks for the thorough review, @khaira777. Latest push addresses the threads, point by point:

  1. Store timezone: business dates now default to and validate against the store-local day on both backend and pickers, using the same timezone setting as the Z reports. Bill and refund windows were already store-local. Tests pin UTC for determinism.
  2. Corrections: added owner/manager void for entries, payments, and opening floats (migration v83). Voiding drops the row from every due and total while keeping it as the audit trail, and a voided float no longer blocks re-entry for the same date thanks to a live-rows-only unique index. Counts stay append-only since variance always uses the latest one.
  3. Counter vs closures: the counter is the live day view and the close stays the formal record, now sharing the same drawer rule (store-local bounds, paid_at attribution, cash refunds subtracted). I did not add cross-navigation yet. If you want a deep link from the counter into the day-close modal (or back), say the word and I will add it.
  4. Scope: the per-category due tracking is what the issue asked for (credit-running materials with dues per vendor category). If you would rather trim this toward pure drawer pay-in/pay-out, tell me which parts to cut and I will cut them.

CI note: the shard 1 failure was a shadowed variable in my own test (fixed). Upstream main has not moved, so no rebase was needed.

const [modalMode, setModalMode] = useState<'expense' | 'payment' | null>(null);
const [amount, setAmount] = useState('');
const [note, setNote] = useState('');
const [date, setDate] = useState(todayUtcDate());

P1 UTC initialization misfiles records

When the store-local date differs from UTC and staff submit before the business-settings request resolves, this UTC-initialized state is posted directly, causing records to be saved under the preceding business date in positive-offset stores or rejected as future-dated in negative-offset stores.

121-126: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Exclude voided opening floats from the monthly report.

openingFloatsByDate does not filter voided_at IS NULL. The new void endpoint at Lines 215-226 and the /daily query at Line 155 both treat a voided float as absent, so /monthly disagrees with /daily for the same date.

The live-rows-only unique index also allows several rows per date (one live row plus voided rows). new Map(rows.map(...)) keeps whichever row the query returns last, so opening_float, expected_cash, variance, and total_opening_floats can report a voided amount.

🐛 Proposed fix
 function openingFloatsByDate(db: ReturnType<typeof getDatabase>, from: string, to: string): Map<string, number> {
   const rows = db.prepare(`
-    SELECT date, amount FROM cash_opening_floats WHERE date >= ? AND date <= ?
+    SELECT date, amount FROM cash_opening_floats
+    WHERE date >= ? AND date <= ? AND voided_at IS NULL
   `).all(from, to) as { date: string; amount: number }[];
   return new Map(rows.map((row) => [row.date, row.amount]));

Round the built-in aggregate before returning it.

normalizePaymentMethod stores built-in methods as exact lowercase values, so the grouped query returns one row per built-in method. Accumulation is not required. SQLite SUM over REAL values can still return floating-point residue, which line 272 exposes in category payments_by_method. Apply roundMoney to row.total; the overall reducer already rounds its values.

Gate the daily report load on business-settings resolution.

date initializes with todayUtcDate(), and the [date] effect runs while /settings/business is pending. After UTC midnight, a store west of UTC can send the next store-local date to /cash-counter/daily. normalizeBusinessDate rejects that date with HTTP 400. If the response arrives before setDate(storeToday), loadDaily shows failedToLoad; the sequence check does not suppress it. Resolve the settings first, then initialize date and month before loading reports.

Reset the daily view when the selected date changes.

When date changes, loadDaily updates dailySeq but leaves loadingDaily and daily unchanged. The page can show the previous day's data under the new date while the request runs, and after a failed request. Set both values before calling api.get.

Gate the initial monthly summary request on business-settings resolution

summaryMonth starts with currentUtcMonth(), and /expenses/summary runs before /settings/business supplies the store timezone. At the UTC/local month boundary, a store west of UTC can display the wrong month’s totals before summaryMonth is corrected. Wait for settings resolution before calling loadSummary, with an explicit UTC fallback when the settings request fails.

Reserve upi as a built-in payment method.

normalizeName rejects cash and card case-insensitively, so Cash cannot bypass the cash counter. However, its reserved-name list omits upi. A custom UPI can therefore coexist with built-in upi and resolve differently in normalizePaymentMethod. Add upi to the reserved-name list.

Summary

Coverage spans finance workflows including expense and payment tracking, cash-drawer calculations, date and timezone handling, role-based permissions, category changes, concurrent updates, database upgrades, and navigation behavior. Most exercised paths are healthy across normal use and edge cases, but voided finance records expose an audit-history and monthly-total correctness failure.

Not safe to merge yet — this PR introduces a high-severity finance integrity issue: voided entries can disappear from audit history while still affecting monthly cash reporting, undermining both reviewability and reported balances. The failure is directly attributable to the change and is a merge blocker.

Tests run by Ito

View full run

Result Severity Type Description
High severity Voiding After the records were voided, the expense page showed no activity and the monthly cash report still showed the 500.00 opening float. The rows stayed stored with their void timestamps, but the user-facing reads did not apply the same audit and total rules.
Access Staff can reach Expenses and Cash Counter, and their operational finance actions work. The first browser attempt was blocked by local Electron setup, so the case was rechecked with source inspection and deterministic local finance suites.
Access Cashiers, servers, and chefs could record daily finance data, while category changes and void actions stayed limited to owners and managers.
General Cashiers could not void expense entries or opening floats through direct requests. Authorized owner voids worked, and trying to void the same record again was rejected.
General Deleting a settled category made it inactive, while an expense submitted at the same time was rejected. The existing history stayed intact and no new orphaned expense was created.
Cash The daily cash report returned the correct total for the selected store day: 50.00 opening cash plus 64.20 in cash orders, minus 0.00 in refunds and 5.00 in cash expenses, for 109.20 expected cash.
Cash A cash payment made late on September 9 UTC appeared on September 10 in the Asia/Kolkata cash report, and it did not appear on the September 9 report.
Cash Card and custom Cheque payments were accepted but did not change the cash drawer totals. The counter kept cash orders at 128.40, cash expenses at 5.00, and expected cash at 173.40.
Counter The Cash Counter kept both physical counts in the history and used the newest count of 125.00 to show a 25.00 variance. The monthly report returned all 30 days with the expected totals.
Expenses The expense page accepted a 100.00 expense and a 100.00 cash payment for an active category. After refresh, the category showed 0.00 due, both history rows, and monthly totals of 100.00 for expenses, payments, and cash.
Expenses A category with 50.00 still owed could not be deleted and stayed active. After another category was fully paid, it was deleted from the active list while its past records remained available.
Methods The monthly report shows cash, card, and UPI in separate built-in totals, and shows Cheque in its own custom total. The same correct totals appear for the Chicken category and the overall report.
Migration An existing local database upgraded successfully and kept its earlier data while adding the finance tables and fields. The finance categories endpoint also returned a successful response after the upgrade.
Sidebar Staff can see Expenses and Cash Counter in the sidebar, open both pages, and still keep feature-gated links hidden after a reload.

High severity Voided records show incorrect history and totals

What failed: After the records were voided, the expense page showed no activity and the monthly cash report still showed the 500.00 opening float. The rows stayed stored with their void timestamps, but the user-facing reads did not apply the same audit and total rules.

Impact · Steps · Stub / mock · Analysis · Why this is likely a bug
  • Severity: High High severity
  • Impact: After a user voids a ledger entry, the monthly cash report can still show money that should no longer count, and the entry disappears from the audit history. This can lead users to trust an incorrect cash balance and makes it harder to review past changes.
  • Steps to Reproduce:
    1. Sign in as a manager and create an expense, a due payment, and a 500.00 opening float for the current business date.
    2. Void all three records and confirm that each response succeeds and includes a voided timestamp.
    3. Open the expense activity history and monthly cash report for that date's month.
    4. Observe that the expense and payment are missing from activity history, while the monthly cash report still shows the 500.00 opening float.
  • Stub / mock content: No stubs, mocks, or bypasses were applied for this test in the recorded run.
  • Code Analysis: The new void operations preserve rows by updating voided_at: voidLedgerRow in main/routes/expenses.ts:205-209 updates either finance table, and the expense/payment routes at lines 212-221 expose that operation. The database migration comment in main/db.ts:4103-4105 states the intended contract: voiding keeps the row as an audit trail while every sum and ledger read ignores it. The implementation splits from that contract in two ways. First, listLedger constructs the expense and payment history query in main/routes/expenses.ts:98-107 with AND t.voided_at IS NULL, so a voided row is not auditable through either history endpoint. The aggregate queries in listCategories and categoryDue correctly use the same predicate for live balances, which shows that the history filter is not needed for totals and is the wrong behavior for audit retention. Second, openingFloatsByDate in main/routes/cash-counter.ts:121-125 selects every float in the date range without voided_at IS NULL. The monthly handler at lines 265-280 consumes that map to calculate each day's opening amount and monthly total, so a voided 500.00 float remains in total_opening_floats and expected_cash. The daily handler at lines 151-156 does filter voided floats, confirming that the monthly path is an inconsistent read path rather than an intentional rule. The smallest fix is to make the history endpoints include retained rows while marking them as voided for audit display, and to add voided_at IS NULL to the monthly opening-float query; keep the existing live-only predicates for balances and cash calculations.
  • Why this is likely a bug: This is supported by both the recorded local behavior and the implementation. All three void requests returned successfully and the database retained the rows with voided_at set; daily live totals dropped to zero, but the monthly report still displayed the voided 500.00 float and the history response omitted the voided expense/payment. That combination cannot be explained by browser reliability or missing persistence. It violates the feature's explicit append-only audit requirement while also producing a silently incorrect monthly cash figure. The relevant code was added by this PR, and the daily path's correct null check provides a direct comparison showing the monthly omission is accidental.

Ito QA identified the following failure during automated PR testing. Please investigate and propose a fix.

**High severity — Voided records show incorrect history and totals**

**What failed:** After the records were voided, the expense page showed no activity and the monthly cash report still showed the 500.00 opening float. The rows stayed stored with their void timestamps, but the user-facing reads did not apply the same audit and total rules.

- **Impact:** After a user voids a ledger entry, the monthly cash report can still show money that should no longer count, and the entry disappears from the audit history. This can lead users to trust an incorrect cash balance and makes it harder to review past changes.
- **Steps to reproduce:**
  1. Sign in as a manager and create an expense, a due payment, and a 500.00 opening float for the current business date.
  2. Void all three records and confirm that each response succeeds and includes a voided timestamp.
  3. Open the expense activity history and monthly cash report for that date's month.
  4. Observe that the expense and payment are missing from activity history, while the monthly cash report still shows the 500.00 opening float.
- **Stub / mock content:** No stubs, mocks, or bypasses were applied for this test in the recorded run.
- **Code analysis:** The new void operations preserve rows by updating `voided_at`: `voidLedgerRow` in `main/routes/expenses.ts:205-209` updates either finance table, and the expense/payment routes at lines 212-221 expose that operation. The database migration comment in `main/db.ts:4103-4105` states the intended contract: voiding keeps the row as an audit trail while every sum and ledger read ignores it. The implementation splits from that contract in two ways. First, `listLedger` constructs the expense and payment history query in `main/routes/expenses.ts:98-107` with `AND t.voided_at IS NULL`, so a voided row is not auditable through either history endpoint. The aggregate queries in `listCategories` and `categoryDue` correctly use the same predicate for live balances, which shows that the history filter is not needed for totals and is the wrong behavior for audit retention. Second, `openingFloatsByDate` in `main/routes/cash-counter.ts:121-125` selects every float in the date range without `voided_at IS NULL`. The monthly handler at lines 265-280 consumes that map to calculate each day's opening amount and monthly total, so a voided 500.00 float remains in `total_opening_floats` and `expected_cash`. The daily handler at lines 151-156 does filter voided floats, confirming that the monthly path is an inconsistent read path rather than an intentional rule. The smallest fix is to make the history endpoints include retained rows while marking them as voided for audit display, and to add `voided_at IS NULL` to the monthly opening-float query; keep the existing live-only predicates for balances and cash calculations.

All three void requests returned successfully and the database retained the rows with `voided_at` set; daily live totals dropped to zero, but the monthly report still displayed the voided 500.00 float and the history response omitted the voided expense/payment.

Stabilization decision: hold this draft until the scope is written into the PR description. Please choose either (a) simple Pay In / Pay Out on top of cash_closures, or (b) a full expense/accounts-payable domain. Recommendation: (a), because it solves the current cash-counter need without introducing a second cash-session ledger. Coding should resume only after the choice and acceptance criteria are recorded.
