Till Variance

Till Variance

The Till Variance screen has all of the Tenders displayed on the left side of the screen.

Count displays the system counts for each tender.

Register Dollars displays what the system says was sold

Cashier Dollars displays what the cashier says they sold.

Adjust Dollars is where the manager makes adjustments.

Variance Dollars displays the difference between cashier dollars and registers dollars.

Adjust Dollars

Adjust Dollars

If any of the amounts in the Variance Dollars display totals are not $0.00, this indicates that the cashier is over or short on their drawer total declaration and a variance exists. The till should be recounted, as well as all other receipts and reports should be rechecked as well.

If an error is found then click the "Adjust"button.

The Adjust Dollars column will appear to have activated its fields for editing. Click inside any fields that may be necessary to edit. (Don’t forget the decimal {.} and/or minus sign {-} when required.) Remember to watch the effect each adjustment is having on the corresponding Variance Dollars field to the right. If the new balance of the Variance Dollars field doesn’t equal $0.00 immediately after the enter key is pressed then there is still a variance.

In this example, the cashier was short $0.54. $0.54 was entered into the Adjust Dollars column for cash. The Variance Dollars column will change as you enter adjustments into the Adjust Dollars column.

Approve

Approve

Occasionally the Till Declaration screen may continue to be out of balance even after adjustments have been made. That may of course be due to unavoidable circumstances. Then again the Cashier Till Declaration may be absolutely perfect down to the last penny. In which case, all that is required is that the manager approves the Cashier Reconciliation Report and then prints it. The Cashier Reconciliation Report presents a summary of the information displayed in the Till Variance screen. It also provides spaces for cashier and manager signatures.

Once the Total Variance is correct, click on the "Approve" button.
