How to create your first petty cash voucher in Easedesk
Step-by-step guide to creating a petty cash voucher in the Easedesk Petty Cash module. Required fields, what happens after, and common gotchas.
Quick answer
To create a petty cash voucher, open Petty Cash from the sidebar, click "New Petty cash voucher", fill in the required fields, and save. The new record is immediately searchable and triggers any linked downstream automations (e.g. accounting posts, notifications, approvals).
Step 1 — Open the Petty Cash module
In the left sidebar, click Petty Cash. If you don't see it, your role may not have petty-cash.view permission — ask your Owner or Admin to grant it under Settings → Users & Roles.
Step 2 — Click "New Petty cash voucher"
The list view shows all existing vouchers. Click the New Petty cash voucher button at the top-right. You will be taken to a clean form page with all available fields visible (we never hide important fields behind tabs).
Step 3 — Fill in required fields
Required fields are marked with a red asterisk. Tooltip help is available on every label — hover over a field to see what it does. Optional fields can be left blank and added later.
Step 4 — Save (or "Save & Add Another" for bulk entry)
Click Save to create the petty cash voucher. If you want to add several in a row, the "Save & Add Another" button resets the form while keeping the page open. The new record appears at the top of the list view.
What happens after
Creating a petty cash voucher may trigger downstream automations depending on the module — for example, posting a journal entry, sending an email, or starting an approval workflow. You can see all triggered actions in the Audit Log.
Editing or deleting a petty cash voucher
Click the petty cash voucher row in the list view to open detail mode. The Edit button is at the top-right. To delete, use the kebab menu (•••). Note: records linked to other entities (e.g. an invoice that has a payment) cannot be deleted — they can be cancelled or voided instead.
