While reviewing register details I found that write offs are recorded as cash
received. Unless I misunderstand write-offs, no cash is received but is meant
to act as a type of forgiveness. This is confusing because it adds to the total
cash received in the cash register. The register summary excludes the write off
in the total bankable, but without knowing why there is a difference between
the total received and bankable it can lead to confusion.

The current summary (example):
Last cashup: 03/30/2021 01:28 PM
Float: 25.00
Total income (cash): 68.95 (68.40)
Total outgoing (cash): -5.10 (-5.10)
Total bankable: 63.30

Proposed change (example):
Last cashup: 03/30/2021 01:28 PM
Float: 25.00
Total income (cash): 68.95 (68.40)
Total outgoing (cash): -5.10 (-5.10)
Total write-offs: -0.55
Total bankable: 63.30

Or even better, do not include write-offs as cash received since no money
enters the drawer during that transaction.
