Cash Drawer Assignment (WIP)
For cash control, two cash drawers can be configured to have restricted access:
- Device must have drawer assignment enabled (devices cannot use drawers if setting is not enabled)
- Each cash drawer is assigned to an individual
- Per job permission, user cannot complete payment unless assigned to a drawer
- Each individual is responsible for the money in their assigned drawer.
- Cash out reports can be run by drawer or by employee for financial accountability.
- Both drawers share one printer (separate printers not required)
Account feature toggle required
4.7 Enable drawer assignment (Contact your NorthStar representative to enable this setting for your account)
