Record money exit
Objective
Record a money exit from the active cash box: operating expenses, refunds, payments to suppliers or any disbursement.
Before starting
- Have an open cash box. If not, open the cash box first from Open cash box.
- Have
CASH_BOX: ADMIN(more restrictive than entries). - Have the reason and amount of the exit clear.
Step by step
- In the Cash box module, in the Movements tab, click Add Exit (red header button).
- The exit dialog opens. Enter:
- Concept (exit concepts catalog).
- Amount and payment type.
- Beneficiary or expense reference.
- Observations (mandatory for exits; helps in the closing reconciliation).
- Confirm with Save.
Expected result
- The exit appears in the movements table.
- The Total Expenses and Net total in cash box widgets are updated.
- The system shows a success message.
Pending: add screenshot of

Common errors
| Situation | What to do |
|---|---|
| The Add Exit button is disabled | The user does not have CASH_BOX: ADMIN. |
| The concept does not appear | Configure it from Cash box concepts or ask administration. |
| The exit was recorded with the wrong payment type | Coordinate with administration to adjust before the cash box closing. |
Suggested permissions
CASH_BOX: ADMIN.
Operational recommendation
- Every exit must have a clear reason. This is essential for the closing reconciliation and for audits.
Relation with other modules
- Patients: if the exit is a refund, it is associated with the patient.
- Resources / Concepts: the exit concepts catalog comes from that module.
- Cash box closing: exits are reconciled in the closing and recorded in the closing sheet.
