Recording a pay-in or pay-out

Log cash added to or removed from the drawer during a shift, and open it to make change.

By the end of this article, a pay-in or pay-out is logged against the open drawer session.

Record one

  1. With a drawer session open, go to Settings > Cash Drawer.
  2. Under Pay in / pay out, choose Pay in or Pay out.
  3. Enter the Amount and a Reason. Both are required.
  4. Click Record.

The amount immediately affects the Expected in drawer total shown above: a pay-in adds to it, a pay-out subtracts from it.

Opening the drawer to make change

If you just need to open the drawer without a sale, for example to make change for a customer, click No sale below the pay-in/pay-out form instead of recording a pay-in or pay-out for it. It is logged in the session as its own event and does not affect the expected cash total, since no money actually left or entered the drawer.
