Today Collections
Today Collections filters repayments to those received in the current day, giving collectors and cashiers a real-time view of money taken in for daily cash-up and reconciliation. It is the screen used at branch close to balance receipts against the cash drawer and mobile-money tills.

Workflow
- Open at branch close to view all of today's posted receipts.
- Group by channel or officer to total cash, bank and M-Pesa collections.
- Cross-check the totals against the physical cash drawer and till statements.
- Investigate any unallocated or pending receipts.
- Confirm the day's collections before locking the session.
