Settling the repository

In-store repositories or safes are counted and settled using the Repository Settlement feature. Once the repository is settled, the POS deducts the credit totals from the on-hand amounts. Currency and media tenders remain in the repository records until removed from the store through a media deposit transaction. For more information, refer to Depositing tenders to an external source.

To settle a repository, follow these steps:

  1. On the Cash Office Store Totals screen, select Repository Settlement. The application displays the Repository Settlement Source screen.

  2. Select a repository source. The application highlights the selected repository.
  3. Select Continue. The application displays the Repository Settlement Count screen.

  4. Select a tender type and select Count. The application displays the Repository Settlement screen where the associate can enter the amount of the selected tender. If Cash is selected, the associate can either manually enter a non-denominational amount or specify the quantity for each applicable denomination.
    Note

    Select Print to print an in-progress receipt of the repository settlement transaction.

  5. Select Count Complete. The application completes the repository settlement transaction and prints the transaction receipt.

Overage and shortage during settlement

When there is an overage or shortage during repository settlement, the application displays the Settlement Over/Short Reason screen before completing the transaction.

To complete the repository settlement, do one of the following:

  • Select a reason for the overage or shortage.
  • Select Recount. The application redisplays the Repository Settlement Count screen for the associate to recount the tenders.
