Book Cash Withdrawal at the End of the Shift

Depending on how you work in your business, you will make one or more cash withdrawals at the end of your shift.

If you only take the daily revenue from the wallet and hand it over to the management, you make one cash withdrawal in enforePOS.

If you take the change out at the end of the day or shift and hand over the revenue to the management, you make two cash withdrawals in enforePOS.

If you take out the change, the revenue and your tip at the end of the day, you make three cash withdrawals in enforePOS.

  1. From the POS menu, open Sales > Accounting.
  2. Tap on Current Shift in the Staff: Your login name area.
  3. Switch to the Wallet tab or the Cash Drawer tab. Bildschirmfoto 2023-08-07 um 10.28.04.png
