This feature is intended to support cash management policies and prevent loss at restaurant sites. Cash threshold limits are set for the site in ECM, The manager in charge is then prompted to remove cash from the cash drawer that exceeds that limit. There are two limits set: a warning prompt at one limit and then a maximum amount limit. If the maximum limit is met, a cash drop is required before any checks can be finalized from that point.
