Margin rarely disappears in one big mistake. It leaks out of small habits at the counter. These are the five we see most often in pilot data.
manual discounts without a reason code
voids after the drawer has opened
split payments that skip the loyalty step
price overrides that never get reset
returns booked to the wrong store
What to do about it
Tallysoft flags each of these in the daily brief with the receipt attached, so you can fix the habit with the person who has it — not with a spreadsheet at the end of the month.
