Cash-Up Sheet

0/6
  • Print the Z-reading (end-of-day total) from the till before you count anything, so you have the figure the till expected to take
  • Count the cash drawer in full: notes, coins and any cheques, and write down each denomination as you go
  • Take out the float (the starting cash) and set it aside so it is ready for the next shift
  • Total the card machine settlement and check it matches the card sales on the till report
  • Add up cash, card and any vouchers or gift cards, then compare the grand total against the Z-reading
  • Note any over or under, with a short reason if you know one (wrong change given, refund, walk-out), and don't just bury it

Good to know

The Z-reading (Z-report) resets the till's running totals to zero for the day, so it can only be taken once at close; an X-reading gives the same figures mid-shift without resetting, which is why it is used for spot-checks.
