Cash drawers and shifts

A shift tracks the cash in a register's drawer. Open Drawer shifts, choose the register and press Open with the starting float.

• Only one shift can be open on a register at a time.
• If Cash and checks need an open drawer is on in Register settings, the register will not take cash or checks until a shift is open.
• To close, count the drawer and enter the amount. This is a blind close: staff do not see what the system expected. Managers see the expected cash and the variance.
• A register cannot be renamed or switched off while its drawer is open.
