How to Use the Bank Manager

The Bank Manager is used in four parts:

1. Create a Bank:
   Creating a bank is the same as setting aside a cash drawer. When you create a bank, you designate a specific amount of money that is placed in the bank before the shift starts. As the bank is used throughout a shift, the amount of money in the bank will fluctuate. When the bank is returned at the end of the shift, Bank Manager will help you reconcile funds used during the shift with the amount remaining in the bank at the end of the shift.
   See: Create a Bank
2. Swapping a Bank In:
   After a bank is created, the bank is engaged by putting the bank into circulation. The process of engaging a bank is “swapping a bank in”. While the bank is swapped in, the original monies will fluctuate based on sales, change provided, payouts (lotto payouts or last minute shopping), etc…

3. Swapping a Bank Out:
   At the end of a shift, removing the cash drawer from circulation, or disengaging the cash drawer, is known as “swapping the bank out”.
   See: Swap a Bank Out
4. Closing the Bank:
   Once the bank is swapped out, the cash drawer can be reconciled by counting the remaining cash and reviewing the shift’s financial activities. Bank Manager walks you through the reconciliation process so that you can close your cash drawer. After a bank is closed, Exatouch provides a Bank Report which is a summary of payments collected during the bank’s shift. The Bank Report helps you reconcile your transaction amounts and determine if there is cash missing from your bank at the end of a shift.
