A cash counter's whole day: opened with a float, billed and collected through the day, counted and closed at night, with nothing left unexplained. A feature of Sales, bought on its own.
Cashier runs the money side of a shop counter. A cashier opens a till with a float and bills customers through the day. Payment is taken by cash, card or other modes in one collection window. Money that is not a bill, such as a courier paid, goes in or out of the drawer on record. Special discounts can need an approval before they are given. At the end of the shift the drawer is counted note by note against the system's figure, and the excess or short is recorded. Cashier is a feature of Sales, bought on its own.
Why use it
- Your drawer is short at night and nobody knows whyHere every bill, receipt and petty cash entry belongs to one counter session.
- Cashiers give discounts on their ownHere a special discount above their authority waits for an approver.
- Small cash payments vanish from the recordHere petty cash in and out of the drawer is entered against the session.
- Split cash and card payments are worked out on paperHere one collection window takes both and shows the change.
- Every bill opens a print dialogHere the InvoiceNET® Print Agent prints straight to the counter printer.
Key advantages
Each counter session ties the opening float, bills, receipts, petty cash and closing together.
Closing counts the drawer note by note and compares it with the system's figure.
One Cash Receipt can settle several bills with mixed pay modes, gift vouchers or a privilege card.
Counter bills are ordinary sales vouchers, so they post, move stock and follow every sales rule.
A counter is opened only when it is available and freed again at closing, so each till has one session at a time.
The cashier dashboard shows counters open, receipts by pay mode, discounts waiting, and excess and short.
