Basic accountancy! How to cash up.
figure is lower than your till figures take the difference from the till that is up the most. Remember your COT figure cannot change, your figures written on the close out form can.
Once all your figures are matching you are ready to bank.
· Take a banking slip from the book.
· Simply fill in all the details. Using the figures you used to get your COT, copy them onto the grid on the banking slip.
· Again check that your figures all match up (mistakes have been made at this stage!!!)
· Make sure the correct date is written on the slip.
· Any cheques that you have should be added up and the total written in the cheques etc. box. Make sure you write how many cheques there are in the small box on the left of the slip.
· Get a banking bag from the cabinet under the desk. Write the bag serial number on the banking slip.
· Write the cinemas address on the left hand side of the bag, write Natwest Watford on the delivered to address section on the right hand side.
· Get the manager to check your money and banking slip.
· When they’ve checked and signed your slip get 2 photocopies of your banking slip.
· Put the original slip and all your money in the bag, when your computer close out is complete seal it, and give to the manager to drop into the safe.
You’re banked.
Reports
The first thing to do is to do a till import to make sure that all the figures on the computer are up to date. To do this:
· Log into the close of day program on the computer.
· On the main screen there will be a button to perform a till import, click on this.
· The computer will then run through a list of checks.
· If all checks are ok then keep clicking the button to continue. If there is a problem (e.g. there is a till down check the till itself if it has been used that day and turn it on, if the till has not been used click ignore).
· Once the computer has finished communicating with the tills it will return to the main options screen.
· Now click on the option for reports.
· The computer should already have the reports needed set as default; these are the operator shift report and financial report.
· Click on print now, and when the next two screens appear click the >> button, and then click the printer icon.
· Check through the financial reports and see which till has the highest voids [next page]
