What is a safe drop and when should I do one?
A safe drop is the process of removing excess cash from the register and placing it in a secure location (like a safe or vault).
When to do it:
- When your drawer has more cash than comfortable (reduces risk of loss)
- At regular intervals during busy shifts (e.g., every 2 hours)
- When instructed by your manager
- Before shift change
How to do it:
- Count the cash you want to remove
- Go to Action Menu → Safe Drop
- Enter the amount
- Add an optional note
- Click Submit
- Place the cash in the safe
The safe drop is recorded in the system and subtracted from your expected cash at check-out. You need the Safe Drop permission to perform this action.
