The Cashout Report is an Accounts Receivable tool used to review all cashouts. From the Cashout Report module, customizing and generating reports, as well as saving reports is doable. It is also a great module for reviewing overages and shortages as well as conducting quick voids (for cashouts only). This module, like most others, also contains additional features to help further break down the report and get to the root of the information needed.
The Cashout Report pulls and displays information based on your accounting strip permissions set via Setup > Accounting Strips.
1. From the Accounts Receivable menu, click Cashout Report.
2. Click the Cashout Report tab.
3. To run the report based on a specific drawer, select the Drawer from the pull-down. Note: Only one drawer can be selected at a time.
4. You can also run the report based on a specific Cashier. Select the Cashierβs name from the pull-down. Note: Only one Cashier can be selected at a time.
It is important to select either the Drawer or the Cashier. Trying to select a drawer and a cashier that do not correspond will not yield any results when running the report.
5. You also have the option to run the report based on a specific Date Range. Enter the beginning and ending dates in the date fields provided.
6. The option to customize the report to show Short and/or Over cashouts is available via the Short and Over check boxes. You can also select the check box to Remove Voided cashouts from the report.
7. When all selections have been made, click Run Report.
The Cashout Report generates several different sections including the General section: the cashout ID number, the name of the Cash Drawer, Cashout Date, the Cashier, the Approver, the amount Left in Drawer, and whether the cashout has been Voided.
The next sections vary depending on the type of payment(s) accepted at your district which could include Other, Credit, Check, Money Order, Eft, and/or Cash. The columns displayed for each payment type are Tendered Amount and Over/Short amount. A negative number indicates a short amount.
At the bottom of the page, the Current Page Totals is listed. The totals here will change as you sift through pages. In the image shown, the Current Page Totals is just for page 1. Note: The Grand Totals will remain the same regardless of what page is displayed; this is showing the Grand Totals for all data generated.
8. Click the ID link to open the original cashout, which can be reviewed, printed, and/or downloaded.
When a customer credit payment is processed as a result of a refund via Point of Sale, the transaction does not display in the cashout.
9. Click the Void button to voide cashouts, as needed.
If a cashout has been voided, the date displays in place of the Void button.
Voids cannot be performed on cashouts linked to cash drawers that have been Portal Enabled on the Cash Drawer Setup screen.
a. If you click Void, a pop-up window displays: Are you sure you want to void this cashout? Click Yes to void. Click Cancel to cancel the void and return to the main screen.
Canceling the void will close the pop-up and take you back to the Cashout Report. If you selected Yes, another message will appear saying: This cashout was successfully voided. The column will then update with the date voided.
If a cashout is voided, all the attached transactions for that specific cashout will now be active for that drawer and will need to be re-cashed out. This is very important and could cause issues if the user has already taken other transactions since last cashing out the drawer.
10. Click Files & Comments to view or attach files and post comments.
a. To view an attached file, click the corresponding link.
b. To add additional files, drag files directly into the box or click the Select button to browse for files.
