How do I perform a "pay in" for my cash register?

Larrys_Nursery · ‎04-04-2020

[The title of this thread has been edited from the original: after starting a cash drawer how to I add cash if I run out during the shift.]

New to square, and was wondering how you go about adding cash to the drawer during a shift. is this possible without closing the drawer and recounting it?

Hi @Larrys_Nursery,

Welcome, yes, you will want to use the Paid in/paid out feature available in-app to manage your cash drawer. Here is an article on cash drawer management. Specifically what you are looking for is:

"Record Cash Paid In and Paid Out

With the Paid In/Out feature, you can record transfers and withdrawals from your cash drawer. Cash paid in and out appears in the drawer history on the iPad, with both the description you enter and the total amount in the drawer.

To record cash paid in and out:

From your in-app menu, tap Reports > Current Drawer.
Tap Paid In/Out.
Enter the cash amount and a description.
Tap Paid In if you add cash, or Paid Out if you remove cash from the drawer.
Tap Confirm Paid In or Confirm Paid Out."

Thanks @mattd !

@Larrys_Nursery

Alternatively, if you run out of small bills and have an excess of larger bills, you could also take out an equal amount of money as you put in and then you wouldn't have to record it or do anything else!

Hi @Maschakaye and welcome to the Community.

I moved your post to an existing thread that goes over paid in/paid out features with cash management.
