A drawer that is short at closing time is only a problem if nobody can say what it should have held. A shift says exactly that.
Counter cash goes wrong in ordinary ways — change given twice, a sale rung up wrong, a note taken out for a delivery. None of it is theft and all of it is invisible if the day is one long stretch with no start and no end.
A shift puts a line around it. It opens with what was in the drawer, records what the till took and in what form, and closes with a count by denomination. The difference between the two is a number, and a number can be looked into.
The cash already in the drawer is recorded.
Cash, UPI and card, as they come.
By denomination, at closing.
What was sold, how it was paid, and what the drawer says.
Counter billing for a shop with a queue: products a tap away, a barcode scan for the rest, split payments, and a shift that opens with a float and closes with a cash count. Counter bills land in the same books as every other invoice.
A till is used in bursts — open the shift in the morning, bill all day, count the drawer at night — so the parts that matter are speed at the counter and a clean close.
