Handling Cash

Cash Registers
Most retailers have POS systems which track cash and inventory
Keep the “till” more than an arm’s reach from customers
Keep the till perfectly organized at all times
Close the drawer after each transaction
Follow proper change-making techniques every time
Refuse to be rushed
Count bills – they can stick together
Have a policy for removing excess cash from till
There is no margin for error in handling cash

3. Business Technology Mr. Bernstein
Making Change
Announce the amount of the sales clearly to the client
Take the customer’s money and announce the amount tendered
Place the cash tendered on the register plate – do not place in till yet
Remove necessary change from the till
Repeat the sale amount to the customer
Count change back to the customer
Wait for the customer to acknowledge agreement before placing the tendered cash into the till
Always follow this process exactly and with no exceptions
