28 Manage Till Options

Till options and maintenance functions are primarily related to the movement of money into and out of a till (a cash drawer). Till options include Paid In and Paid Out, No Sale, Post Void, Foreign Currency Maint., Tender Exchange, and Change Float. Several other till maintenance options deal with the control and auditing of funds in the till. They include Cash Pickup, Cash Transfer, Till Audit, and Mid-Day Deposit. Finally, the Lock Register option provides physical security for the till.

Note:

Because Xstore Point of Service is highly configurable, menu options in this guide are not identified by a function key number (F2, F3, and so on.). Instead, the name on the button is used throughout the procedures and processes. Many Till Options are controlled by user security and may not be available to all associates.
