Tool	What it does
float_open	Open a float on the imprest system: name, currency, imprest amount in minor units, custodian. Returns FLOAT-YYYY-NNNN and the opening journal
topup_record	Record cash going into the tin: amount, date, source. Marks every voucher up to that date reimbursed
voucher_add	Record one voucher out of the tin: amount, date, category, description, payee, receipt reference. Returns VOU-YYYY-NNNN
voucher_delete	Delete a voucher entered wrongly, while it is still uncounted
reconcile	Count the cash: the expected balance, the difference, the vouchers since the last count, all marked reconciled, and the count recorded
replenish_request	What restores the imprest: the amount, the vouchers it covers, the per-category expense_add payload and the double entry. Writes nothing
float_report	Balance against imprest, unreconciled vouchers, the last count, and the history of every difference a count found
