Use this file to create cash drawer records. The system uses these records with the receipt of cash payments feature and other cash balancing and cash reconciliation features.

Enter the code of the store where this cash drawer is physically located.

The Default Payment Terminal field remains inactive until a store location is chosen.

Use this field to select the default Payment Terminal ID associated with the cash drawer selected during user login. Since payment terminals are assigned to a single location, his field remains inactive until a Store Location is chosen.

In addition to the list of available Payment Terminal IDs, there is a "None Selected" option. This option does not default a Payment Terminal when a user logs in with the current cash drawer.

If a default payment terminal has been selected but the store location is changed, the default payment terminal resets to the "None Selected" option.

Specify the type of cash drawer you are using, or if you are not using a cash drawer, select None Attached. You have the following options:

None Attached
Serial
USB

If you specified "Serial" at the Open Cash Drawer Type field, use this field to specify the code you want the system to use to open the cash drawer. The code you enter here must match the dip switch setting on the cash drawer. You can enter a value from 1 to 255. You can also enter a string of identical characters separated by a comma, for example "7,7,7". If no characters appear in this field, the system assumes a value of 7 has been entered here.

The flexibility provided by this field can, for example, help resolve a software conflict with a third-party program interfacing with STORIS. The outside program may be using code 7 for another function and could cause the cash drawer to open when accessing that function.

This field is active unless you selected None Attached at the Cash Drawer Type field.

The above field affects STORIS programs that open the cash drawer automatically. To open a cash drawer manually, use the Open Cash Drawer routine.

STORIS opens cash drawers automatically only for transactions in which cash is involved. For non-cash transactions, STORIS assumes your cash drawer has a slot to insert documents such as checks or credit card receipts.

Use this field to indicate the EMV Terminal ID previously configured in the UTG/MCM in order to associate it with this cash drawer. This is a free text field that accepts up to 30 characters, but only the first 16 characters are used by Tender Retail MCM messaging.
