Overview
At the start of the day, you’ll open your shop with a float in the till so that you have enough cash to give as change to your customers. Whatever the amount you choose to put in, you can record the float when you open the register to begin trading. As you trade through the day there may be reasons to put cash in or take cash out, for example when paying for deliveries. These cash recordings won’t create any accounting, but along with cash processed for sales and refunds, they will be reported in the payments report printed at the end of the day You will then reconcile this report to your till contents.
IMPORTANT: All the cash functions require the manager role.
