WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why close_cash_tracking_session needs a policy

Closing a cash tracking session finalizes/ends a session but is primarily a state change (write operation) rather than a deletion or financial transaction. It modifies the session's status but doesn't move money directly, though it could have downstream financial implications by reconciling cash. Severity is medium due to potential impact on financial record-keeping and POS operations.
