Transactions show the money activity connected to restaurant operations.

## Common Transaction Tasks

* [Review Transactions](/restaurant/orders-and-service/transactions/review-transactions) helps you check payments, refunds, tips, tender, and change.
* [Create A Manual Transaction](/restaurant/orders-and-service/transactions/manual-transaction) covers manual income or expense records.

## When To Use This Page

Open Transactions when you need to answer questions like:

* Did this payment go through?
* Was a refund recorded?
* How much cash was taken?
* Which payment method was used?
* Does finance need an export?

Keep manual transaction notes clear enough for another manager to understand later.
