This functionality is useful in full-service environments where you do not want servers keeping cash on their person. This allows a server to take cash payments on any register with an attached cash drawer; the collected cash in hand will be transferred from the individual employee’s audit (shift report) and added into the cash drawer.
When the Cash tender key is selected, the cash drawers opens to deposit the cash and provide change for the customer. Each device with an attached cash drawer has its own Cash Audit Report. If the restaurant uses multiple registers with attached cash drawers, each Cash Audit Report shows cash sales processed on that device.
When multiple employees are using the cash drawers for cash payments, the cash due on their individual audit report should equal the cash amount in the specific drawer for that transaction.
- Printer/Cash Drawer > Under “Cash Drawer Options” > Cash Audit By Terminal Report
This option should be enabled on all registers with an attached cash drawer, when all employees need the ability to close cash transactions.
Important: If you have any registers in your restaurant that does not have an attached cash drawer that will also be used by employees, tick the option, “Disable Tips Paid From Cash Audit” on all registers that have an attached cash drawer; Registers without a cash drawer does not need either option ticked.
