I have been fighting the horrible docs along with my CPA.
- the docs say: This is the total amount available when opening the cash drawers for a given tender type. Note that a Tender Opening Amounts entry is created for each tender type in Store Operations. Therefore, each time a new tender type is added, this account must be updated to ensure correct posting. See NOTES for more information.
This is incorrect. A new type is only created for CASH types, you then need to change it back to have it correct. I guess this is a bug.
- Assuming you have a GL account in quicken - cash drawer and have; Tender Opening Amount Cash - debit and credit both cash drawer Tender Closing Amount Cash - debit and credit both cash drawer
This creates a credit and a debit both in cash drawer effectivly zeroing out the cash drawer, but tender dropped , paid out only subtract from cash drawer as it should. Then the drawer at the end of the batch is always declining.
The docs really need to be clarified. What is the reason for all 3 of the following being set; Tender Opening Amount Cash Tender Closing Amount Cash and/or Tender Received for example
