How to Use Cash Drawer: A Complete Guide for POS System Users
What is a Cash Drawer and How Does It Work?
A cash drawer is a secure storage compartment, usually attached to a POS (Point of Sale) system, designed to hold cash, coins, checks, and receipts safely during business transactions. It connects to the POS terminal and opens automatically when a transaction requiring cash payment is processed or via manual release keys.
How Do You Set Up a Cash Drawer with a POS System?
Setting up a cash drawer involves connecting it to the POS system, typically via an RJ11/RJ12 cable plugged into the receipt printer or directly to the POS terminal. After physical connection, you need to configure the POS software settings to trigger the drawer opening after cash transactions. Ensure proper alignment and verify drawer operation during a test sale.
How to Open the Cash Drawer Manually?
Manual opening is required in some situations like starting shifts or cash reconciliations. Most cash drawers have a manual release key or lever. Use the key to open the drawer safely without triggering the POS system. This prevents errors in transaction records.
What Are the Best Practices for Cash Drawer Security?
To secure your cash drawer, limit access to authorized employees only, use manual locks when the drawer is unattended, and regularly reconcile cash to detect discrepancies. Avoid leaving large amounts of cash inside the drawer after business hours and consider integrating security cameras at the checkout for monitoring.
What Troubleshooting Steps Should You Take if the Cash Drawer Does Not Open?
If your cash drawer doesn't open, check the following:
- Verify that all cables between the drawer, printer, and POS are securely connected.
- Confirm POS software settings are correctly configured to send the open drawer signal.
- Inspect the manual release mechanism to ensure it is not jammed.
- Restart the POS system and printer to refresh communications.
- If issues persist, contact the cash drawer manufacturer or POS provider's support.
