This user guide provides step-by-step instructions for managing bank drop transactions within the cash drawer system.

Understanding Terminologies

Bank Drop

A bank drop transaction is the process of recording and submitting money (such as cash or checks) from a cash drawer or business account to a bank for deposit. It tracks the details of the deposited funds, including the amounts, denominations, and associated checks, ensuring accurate financial records and reconciliation with the bank.

Cash Drawer

A cash drawer is a secure compartment within the point-of-sale (POS) system used to store cash, coins, checks, and receipts from transactions. It helps track cash in and cash out movements for services, retail product sales, and refunds, ensuring accurate financial management and security.

    1. From the EMR Board Tabs, select ‘’Cash Drawer.’’
    2. From the Left Navigation, click on the “EMR Board” dropdown and select “Cash Drawer.’’ Alternatively, you can type “Cash Drawer” into the search bar in the Left Navigation.
  2. Select the Med SPA location from the dropdown menu for which you want to view the cash drawer history and click “Proceed.”
  3. The cash drawer for the selected Med SPA location will open, displaying Cash Drawer Actions on the left and Today’s Cash Transactions along with Undeposited Checks in Drawer at the bottom. It also shows the Opened At timestamp and the current totals for Cash In, Cash Out, Bank Drop, Check Deposits, and the Current Balance for that location.Note: “Cash Drawer Actions” are the available functions within the system that allow users to manage the cash drawer, including cash in, cash out, reconciliations, and transaction tracking. These actions help maintain accurate cash flow records for a Med SPA location. “Today's Cash Transactions” refers to a log of all cash movements within the cash drawer for the current business day. “Undeposited Checks in Drawer” are checks that have been received but not yet deposited into the bank. “Opened At” refers to when the cash drawer was opened for the business day, helping track when financial activity began. “Cash In” refers to adding money to the cash drawer, including payment for services, product sales, or manual cash deposits. “Cash Out” refers to money removed from the cash drawer, including refunds, petty cash expenses, or withdrawals. A “Bank Drop” transfers excess cash from the drawer to a secure bank deposit to minimize on-hand cash risks. “Check Deposits” are checks that have already been deposited into the bank. The “Current Balance” is the total amount of money available in the cash drawer after accounting for all cash in, cash out, and bank drop transactions.
