POS Cash Management

Function

  • This function is used to control, if users have made a Start Declaration (Float Entry) or End of Day Declaration on some POS terminal in the store. It is used only when the statement method is Staff (Floating Cashier).
    When the user makes a Start Declaration, it is logged on the store server and also when the user makes an End of Day Declaration.
    Only one user can log on one POS Terminal at a time. When the user logs on the POS Terminal, the system looks into the store database to see if a start declaration has been made. For a Pick Up Warning, the system uses the web services to calculate, from store server, if a warning is to be displayed for the tender type.
  • If the statement method is POS Terminal, all transactions used for Pick Up Warning and start/end declaration are on the current POS Terminal, so the system will not use the TS for this method.

Error handling

  • If the POS is unable to contact the remote database, the user can make a Float Entry. The Float Entry transaction is sent when connection has been restored.
  • User can also make an End of Day Declaration. The declaration is then based on data from the current POS, and the user is warned about possible differences. End of Day transaction is sent when connection has been restored.
