Petty cash without the leaks

Small cash, big problems. How named petty cash accounts and recharge tracking close the most common hole in site finances.

Petty cash without the leaks

Petty cash is where money quietly disappears. A few thousand rupees handed to a supervisor for daily site needs feels too small to track carefully — until you add up a year of it across five sites.

The fix isn't more paperwork. It's structure. Named petty cash accounts, each with a clear recharge history and every spend linked back to a transaction, turn an untrackable float into an auditable ledger.

With ConstrucTx, every recharge and adjustment is logged, every linked transaction is visible, and inactive accounts can be toggled off so your active view stays clean.

The result is simple: you can answer 'where did the cash go?' for any site, any month, in seconds.
