00:00:01.366 --> 00:00:06.166
Cash does not only move when you make a sale. In this episode we open the drawer

2
00:00:06.166 --> 00:00:10.906
without a sale, add money to it, take money out, and see what the drawer should

3
00:00:10.906 --> 00:00:11.206
hold.

4
00:00:12.550 --> 00:00:17.752
Sometimes a customer just needs change, and there is no sale to ring up. Open the

5
00:00:17.752 --> 00:00:20.513
main menu, and choose No sale, open drawer.

6
00:00:21.598 --> 00:00:26.655
The register insists on a reason. Opening the drawer with nothing sold is exactly

7
00:00:26.655 --> 00:00:31.712
what a dishonest employee would do, so every no sale is written to a journal that

8
00:00:31.712 --> 00:00:32.836
managers can read.

9
00:00:32.986 --> 00:00:37.151
Tap Open drawer. The register tells you the drawer opened, and that it was recorded.

10
00:00:39.045 --> 00:00:43.585
Now the other times when cash moves. Open the menu again, and choose Cash

11
00:00:43.585 --> 00:00:44.269
management.

12
00:00:45.657 --> 00:00:51.012
You see your shift, and when it was opened. As a cashier, you cannot see the totals

13
00:00:51.012 --> 00:00:56.108
here, and that is deliberate. You can record a pay in, a pay out, and close the

14
00:00:56.108 --> 00:00:56.689
register.

15
00:00:57.371 --> 00:01:02.378
A pay in is cash you add to the drawer. Say the drawer is short of small change, and

16
00:01:02.378 --> 00:01:05.895
the manager brings fifty dollars from the safe. Tap Pay in.

17
00:01:06.634 --> 00:01:12.468
Type the amount, and a reason. There are quick reasons to tap, such as Change float

18
00:01:12.468 --> 00:01:14.998
top up. A reason is always required.

19
00:01:15.148 --> 00:01:19.796
Tap Pay in. Because this changes the money in the drawer, it is recorded against

20
00:01:19.796 --> 00:01:24.618
your shift. If you are not allowed to do this yourself, the register asks a manager

21
00:01:24.618 --> 00:01:26.303
to approve it with their PIN.

22
00:01:30.790 --> 00:01:36.534
The pay in is recorded. Now a pay out. Cash leaves the drawer, for example to buy

23
00:01:36.534 --> 00:01:39.867
cleaning supplies, or a bank drop. Tap Pay out.

24
00:01:40.607 --> 00:01:44.959
Twenty dollars, for supplies. The money is recorded as having left the drawer, so

25
00:01:44.959 --> 00:01:47.215
the drawer will balance when you count it.

26
00:01:59.559 --> 00:02:04.525
So how much should be in the drawer at the end of the day? The register works it out

27
00:02:04.525 --> 00:02:09.374
for you. It is the opening float, plus the cash from your sales, plus any pay ins,

28
00:02:09.374 --> 00:02:11.443
less any pay outs and cash refunds.

29
00:02:12.669 --> 00:02:17.797
That is why every pay in and pay out needs a reason. Each one is recorded on the

30
00:02:17.797 --> 00:02:23.118
shift, and counted in that sum, so the drawer still balances at the end of the day.

31
00:02:23.268 --> 00:02:27.805
While the shift is open, this screen keeps the total hidden from you. That is the

32
00:02:27.805 --> 00:02:32.511
blind count, and we see how it works in the next episode, when we close the register

33
00:02:32.511 --> 00:02:33.687
and count the drawer.

34
00:02:34.916 --> 00:02:39.916
In the next episode, we close the register, count the drawer, and see over and

35
00:02:39.916 --> 00:02:40.301
short.
