Every repository of cash should be set up as a drawer. So, for example, your safe should be set up as a drawer, as should the EZCash machine (if you use one), as well as each separate cashier drawer or till. Each drawer will start with an opening balance and the system will track all cash additions, cash removals and payments. Daily, or at the chosen interval, the cashier will close out the drawer, enter the ending balance and the system will determine if there is an overage or a shortage.
Each drawer is given an identifying code, for example 'S' for the safe, 'Z' for the EZCash machine and 'A', 'B' and 'C' for the three drawers the cashiers will use. The screen will show the status of the drawer Open or Closed, and who the current user of this drawer is. You may also setup whether or not the drawer is logable. A logable drawer is one that can be exclusively opened by a cashier. The safe and the EZCash machine are not logable, but the regular cashier drawers are. You may enter a beginning balance - but once you have started operating you should not edit the beginning or the ending balance again.
If Drawers are operational, when a cashier logs in they will be asked to enter a drawer code. Once a cashier has opened a drawer, no one else may use it until it is closed, and all payments made are deducted from the balance of that drawer.
To enable the use of cash drawers, the checkbox labeled Use Cashier Drawers must be checked in Payments.
