Drawer Memo: Start of Day

The Start of Day (SOD) process allows for counting cash at the store opening as well as recording any discrepancies with the closing count of the previous Drawer Memo.

To create a new Drawer Memo and start the SOD process, in POS:

  1. On the Home Screen, tap Drawer Memo. The Drawer Memo button can be located in the navigation panel at the bottom or in the More menu depending on your settings. On tapping, the Drawer Memo area opens.

  2. In the Drawer Memo area, tap Start New Drawer Memo. On tapping, the Start of Day area opens.

Please be advised that the look of the Start of Day area depends on your CHQ settings.

To complete the SOD process, you have to go through each tab displayed on the left:

a. On the Drawer Cash – Opening Count tab A , in the Count B column of the grid, enter the present number of bills or coins for each denomination. Tap Next at the bottom-right C .

If the Previous Diff column has a non-zero value, on tapping Next, you will be asked to create a cash movement record to handle that difference.

b. On the Safe Cash – Opening Count tab (if applicable), in the Opening Amount field, enter the current amount in the safe. Tap Next.

c. In Complete – Summary, to automatically print the Memo on finalizing, turn the Print Start of Day switch on.

If the Notes field is required, tap Add Notes.

Then, to verify the counts, in the Opening Verification field, tap Select and then enter the credentials of a user with the appropriate security right.

  1. Tap Complete to finish the SOD process and activate the Memo.
