And the register registers every sold item, so unless the cashier fakes the beep sound and the customer ignores the missing receipt, it won't work since the till would be short. And even if the cashier bypasses the register entirely, they could keep change outside the till if they want to pocket money.

Back in the day, the trick was when you owe the customer, say, 78 cents, you short them a quarter and only give them 53 cents. You still take that quarter out of the till, you just hold it with your pinkie so the cameras cant see it while you hand the rest of the change to the customer. If they notice they got shorted, you just say "oh sorry" and reopen the till to hand them the quarter thats still in your pinkie. But if they dont notice, you just made a quarter. This relies on you being able to memorise who youve shorted and not short the same person multiple times without a long time in between, because then people start to get sus

If given exact change you can just cancel the order and pocket the cash you can still get caught if they ask for a receipt or if the inventory is short and they do a deep investigation.

In my experience, cancelling a full transaction needs authorization from the supervisor via key or employee card swipe.
