As I see this is your first post to the Sellers community forum let me welcome you here.

 

Now the Short answer is Yes multiple Devices can share 1 Cash drawer.  The reporting how ever is not going to be divided for the cash drawer per device.  1 Cash Drawer = 1 Report.  

 

The other thing is you need a Networked Receipt Printer and a Cash Drawer driven by the Receipt Printer.  I have this setup in my store so 2 Stands, 1 Ipad, and 2 Android Cell phones all use 1 Cash Drawer and the 1 Network Printer.  Now for Cash Sales they all go through Ipad Stand 1 and if needed we use Ipad Stand 2 for Credit Card only Sales to keep only 1 person in and out of the cash drawer for reporting.

 

So I am not sure what type of Cash Drawer or Receipt Printer setup you have.
