Cash on delivery doesn't add up at the end of the day
Differences are hard to trace once a few days pass, and you can't tell a mistake from a real problem. I'd fix it with your own business system, in the three steps below.
What it looks like
- Drivers hand over cash at different times and in different amounts.
- You can't tell quickly whether a shortfall is a mistake, a missing job or something else.
- Matching collections to jobs takes someone a whole evening.
How I'd fix it
Record the cash collected on each job in the system, at the moment of delivery.
Show cash due and cash handed over for each driver each day, side by side.
Send you an end-of-day summary of what is still with each driver.
Your own business system
Stop juggling Excel sheets, WhatsApp groups and paper.

260 hours a month
QAR 9,100 a month
If a system gave back just a quarter of that, you'd save QAR 2,275 every month.
