Allowing Assigned Receptacle Access and Counts

ECM requires that you assign a workstation operator to a till or server bank receptacle session to perform transactions against the session. Managers need access to work within these receptacle sessions without being assigned to the sessions. You can create an Employee Class for management workstation operators with a configuration set that allows them to perform transactions against the till or server banking session without prior assignment.

  1. Select the property, click Configuration, and then click Employee Classes.
  2. Select the role type, and then click Operator Options.
  3. Select 26 - Allow Assigned Receptacle Access to:
    • Allow workstation operators to view and perform transactions for till receptacles when the operator is not the owner or an assigned user.

    • Show a list of employees with closed server bank sessions that can be reopened.

  4. To prevent the workstation operator from counting a till or server bank receptacle session more than once, select 27 - Prevent Multiple Receptacle Counts.

    If the receptacle session was already counted, the workstation operator cannot count it again immediately afterwards. However, if you select option 27, the workstation operator can perform transactions after counting a receptacle session.

  5. To prevent the workstation operator from performing more transactions after counting a receptacle session, select option 28 - Prevent Transactions once a Count has been Performed.

    Starting with release 19.2.1, option 28 is available. Selecting 28 does not prevent the workstation operator from adjusting a count or from transferring funds out of the counted receptacle.

    If option 27 is disabled and option 28 is enabled, the workstation operator can perform more than one count and can perform more transactions following a count.

  6. To allow the workstation operator to deposit cash without the need to perform a count, select option 30 – Allow Deposit without Count.
  7. Click Save.
