The Cash Deposit function in INDY POS is used to finalize and lock off daily cash handling after all tills have been balanced.

This step:

  • Completes the end-of-day cashing process

  • Confirms the deposit amount for your site’s records

  • Locks the day for auditing, preventing further changes without admin access


When to Use Cash Deposit

  • After all POS units are finalized during the cash up procedure

  • Typically used by supervisors or managers to close the day’s cash operations

  • Ensures that cash totals are reconciled and recorded for auditing


Step 1: Navigate to Cash Deposit

  1. After completing Cash Up for all tills:

    • Open the Cash Deposit section from the POS

  2. Review the list of finalized POS units and their totals

    • Example: POS 1 shows $347 ready for deposit


Step 2: Enter Deposit Details

  1. Confirm the deposit amount for the day

    • Example: Type $347 as the deposit amount

  2. Optionally, add notes for auditing or site procedures, such as:

    • Bank bag numbers for deposits

    • Weather conditions (useful for sales pattern tracking)

    • Any operational remarks for the finance team


Step 3: Finalize the Deposit

  1. Click Save / Confirm Deposit

  2. The system locks the day for cash auditing

  3. Any further changes require admin access to reopen the day


Tips for Staff

  • Always complete cash up on all POS units before performing a cash deposit

  • Use the Notes field for traceability and internal reporting

  • Once a deposit is saved, the day is closed for cash edits


Notes

  • Video Reference Timestamp: 0:01 – 1:21

  • Key Notes:

    1. Cash Deposit = final cash lock-off after all tills are finalized

    2. Deposit totals should match the sum of all POS cash counts

    3. Day is locked for auditing; only admins can reopen for adjustments

  • Common Support Queries:

    1. Deposit amount doesn’t match: Verify all tills were finalized correctly

    2. Cannot edit after saving: Only admin can reopen the day

    3. Need to track deposits by bag number: Use Notes field for manual logging

  • Best Practice:

    • Encourage supervisors to record deposit references in Notes for easy audit trails

    • Include Cash Deposit step in all end-of-day SOPs

    • Reopen days only when essential, and document the reason for audit compliance
