Change Float

The Float is the total value of cash counted and removed from the till, but not included in the bank deposit. This cash remains in circulation to be used the next time the till is opened. This option can be used whenever you need to change the amount withheld from the bank deposit and can be adjusted per till. For example, you may want to change the float amount during the holiday shopping season to plan for increased sale activity.

To change the float:

1. Open the Till Options Menu.

2. Click Change Float.
