I personally also track every transaction with every payment method and
also transactions of money between them.

It might also have something to do, that I also do this at my job, where
the requirements of tracking cash transactions are very strict due to
rules set by the financial authorities. If you don’t track your cash
right, they can estimate your sales.

I can’t understand why you wouldn’t track your cash payments. Either
track everything or nothing at all.
