Creating, Editing, and Deactivating Receptacles

A receptacle represents a physical or virtual location used to store funds and draw transactions.

1. Select the Enterprise, zone, property, or revenue center, click Setup, and then click Receptacles.
2. Insert a record, enter a unique name for the receptacle, and then click OK.
3. Double-click the receptacle record to open it.
4. Enter or select information in the receptacle fields.

   • Receptacle Type: Select the type of receptacle.

   • Template Name: Select the template to use for this receptacle.

   • Location: Select the location where the receptacle is defined.

     You can define a receptacle type that is commonly used across an Enterprise or region without uniquely defining it at each property or revenue center. The location allows you to specify a receptacle name and configuration to be used in multiple locations. When you select 2 - Property, a receptacle is defined for each property based on the values entered. When you select 3 - Revenue Center, a receptacle is defined within each revenue center.

     For example, each property might have one safe to maintain all cash transactions for the entire property. Create a safe receptacle from the Enterprise level or zone, and then specify the property in the Location field. The safe receptacle is defined at all properties under the selected level.

   • Options: Select Deactivate Receptacle to prevent workstation operators from performing further activity against the receptacle.

5. To edit a receptacle, highlight the record, change the values, and then click Save.
6. To deactivate a receptacle, highlight the record, and then select Deactivate Receptacle.

   Deleting a receptacle is not permitted.

7. Click Save.
