2.4 Open Teller Batch

The Open Teller Batch screen is used to open a teller batch on a specified date.

A Teller can initiate the teller batch with the current cash position that has been retained from the previous day or start with zero cash and subsequently buy cash from the vault. The system will default the cash balances on opening a teller batch.

To open a teller batch:

1. On the Homepage, from Teller mega menu, under Branch Operations, click Open Teller Batch or specify Open Teller Batch in the search icon bar and select the screen.
