Pichler's Books Are Not in Order (German: Bei Pichler stimmt die Kasse nicht) is a 1961 West German comedy film directed by Hans Quest and starring Theo Lingen, Georg Thomalla and Karin Dor. It was shot at the Wandsbek Studios in Hamburg. The film's sets were designed by the art directors Albrecht Becker and Herbert Kirchhoff. It is based on the play The Embezzlers by Alfred Polgar, previously adapted into a 1931 film The Virtuous Sinner starring Heinz Rühmann.
The small-town accountant Pichler and his assistant Vittgers, who happens to be in love with his daughter Anneliese, head to Hamburg in order to hand over the company's payroll to the head of their firm. The two naïve figures are soon caught up with the iniquity of the city's, particularly its famous red-light district St. Pauli. Anneliese, who has come in pursuit of them, manages to save them from any more financial losses or disgrace.
