What is a cash memo?
A cash memo (ক্যাশ মেমো) is the bill a shop hands over for a cash sale. It lists what was sold, the quantity, the rate and the total, and it is the customer's proof of purchase for warranty, exchange or accounts. Most shops in Bangladesh still use printed memo pads — this tool prints the same thing, but neat, totalled and with the amount written in words automatically.
What a proper cash memo shows
- Shop name, address and phone — and a logo if you have one.
- Memo number and date — numbers go up automatically so you never repeat one.
- Customer name and mobile — optional for walk-in sales, important for credit and warranty.
- Items — description, quantity, rate and amount.
- Total, less (discount), paid and due — with the net amount in words.
- Terms — for example "Goods once sold are not returnable".
Cash memo vs invoice
A cash memo is for an immediate retail sale. A VAT invoice (Mushak-6.3) is required when a VAT-registered business sells to another business, and it must show BIN and VAT. If you need VAT, use the invoice generator instead.
Tips for faster billing
- Press Enter to jump from item to quantity to rate to the next row — no mouse needed.
- Items you sell are remembered with their last rate and appear as quick buttons.
- Choose A4 ×2 to print a customer copy and a shop copy on one sheet.
- Leave "Paid now" empty for a full payment; type a smaller amount and the memo shows the due in red.
When you are writing dozens of memos a day, a POS does it in one tap — and also updates your stock and daily sales report.
