Receipt Book with Auto Numbers and Cash in Hand

Receipt Book with Auto Numbers and Cash in Hand is an offline app (one HTML file in a zip) for anyone who still writes receipts in a carbon book. Each receipt gets the next number by itself, prints on A5 with a place to sign, and can be voided without losing its number. A second list records the cash you took to the bank, so the app can show how much cash should be in the drawer.

The problem it removes: Paper receipt books skip numbers, get a page torn out, and nobody can say how much was taken on Tuesday or how much cash should be in the drawer. Entering the same receipts in a spreadsheet afterwards doubles the work. This app numbers, prints and adds up in one step.

What is inside:

• Receipts numbered RC with the year and a running number, assigned when you save and never reused
• Payment method, reference, received by, and a Void status that needs a reason and keeps the number in the list
• A5 receipt with a signature line, and a printable cash book list for any period with a total
• Today page: receipts and takings today and this month, by payment method, and the latest receipts
• Bank deposits list and a cash in hand figure: cash receipts minus cash banked
• Example data you can load in one click, a Start here guide and an Honest limits panel
• JSON backup and restore, CSV export, and CSV import with a check of every row before anything is added

Who it is for: A small business, club, landlord, tutor or workshop that takes payments in cash, by cheque or by transfer and hands out a receipt each time. One person at one computer.

What it is NOT: It is not a tax invoice or a VAT return and does not claim to meet any authority requirement for receipts. It does not write the amount in words, does not take card payments and does not connect to a bank. It cannot be shared between two computers at the same time. It is not legal, tax or accounting advice, it is not connected to any government system, bank or messaging service, and it does not file or send anything by itself. UAE e-invoicing is not part of it.

Verified by us: scripted tests in Chromium (106 checks through the real screens: adding, editing and deleting records in every table, required-field messages, backup then clear then restore, CSV export then import, keyboard order, print layouts rendered to PDF, no horizontal scrolling at 375 and 1280 pixels, no network requests) and an independent recalculation by a separately written Python evaluator of 226 calculated values (25 randomised rows plus the example data) with 0 mismatches. Safari engine (WebKit): smoke test passed; Firefox: could not be launched. Not tested: Firefox beyond what is stated here, and no real printer was used (print layouts were checked as PDF).
