Stores Needing More Cash Procedure
Cash on Hand continues to be an issue due to the current uptick in Credit Card transactions. We wanted to make sure that all the stores are on the same system to ensure we can follow the cash and account for the transfers accurately. We expect the DM's to be all over this if a store is having issues and working with them to follow the proper procedures. We only sent this to the DM/DO and we are counting on you to communicate this will the teams that need it. If you have any questions, please let us know.
There are only 3 options if the store is out of cash.
- Raise the Till above-set amount temporarily
- Transfer Cash from another store
- Request a one time Cash infusion from Loomis
Raising the Till Procedures - The store can raise there current till above the current set amount in efforts to have enough cash for the weekend. If the store is doing this, they should be Store should raising and lower the till daily to keep an accurate count on the till. EVERY night the store should enter the exact amount of the till into PULSE. If the store only has $200 in the store, then the Ending till in PULSE would say $200. DM's will need to do a routine physical count of the cash; it is recommended at least once a period.
Example - If your till started at $500 and tonight you need to lower it to $450, you would enter $50 under lower Till, and it would change the Ending Till at the bottom to $450.
